Welcome to PiRL, the Phadia Immunology Reference Laboratory.
At PiRL we are committed to providing the highest quality,
most up-to-date laboratory allergy tests available. Our tests
are designed for use by clinical investigators and specialists
in the field of allergy and immunology. PiRL is operated by
Phadia AB, the worldwide leader in allergy diagnostics for
more than 30 years. PiRL advances the science of allergy diagnostics
by providing component-resolved diagnostics (CRD). CRD is based
on the use of tests performed with recombinant allergen components
to define the fine specificity of allergen sensitization and
better determine the contribution of immediate hypersensitivity
to an individual’s allergy symptom complex.
Please take this opportunity to review the content of the PiRL
website. In it you’ll find detailed information about
the tests we offer for CRD. You can also order tests and access
test results. In the coming months, we’ll be adding more
information to our website, and we invite you to visit often.
If you have any questions about the use of tests for IgE antibodies
to allergen components or wish to talk to a PiRL staff member
about clinical investigation or allergy diagnostics using CRD,
please do not hesitate to contact
us.
