Array 11

What is the Array 11 – Chemical Immune Reactivity Screen?

The Chemical Immune Reactivity Screen (Array 11) measures immune response to chemicals bound to human proteins, unlike other tests that only identify chemical exposure. This measurement helps determine a person's health risk from chemical exposure.

The test extends beyond detecting chemical exposure levels to measuring antibody response to the chemicals, demonstrating impact on the body.

What Does the Array 11

The Array 11 specifically measures an extensive number of chemical toxins that can bind to body tissues with environmental exposure. Antigens tested are listed below.

Which Patients is the Array 11 Best Used For?

Array 11 explores the impact of chemicals on human cells. This test is helpful for patients with increased chemical sensitivity/intolerance, with abnormal or loss of immune system functioning, or with an autoimmune condition or a family history of autoimmune disease.

Clinical Use

• Identify the loss of immune tolerance associated with chemical exposure, which may lead to autoimmune reactivity*
• Assist in setting guidelines for the avoidance of specific chemicals to reduce the risk of igniting the autoimmune process*
• Monitor the effectiveness of the clinical management of patients*

What Sample Type is Needed for the Array 11

The Array 11 – Chemical Immune Reactivity Screen requires a blood specimen for analysis. The array collection kit includes blood specimen collection tubes and return packaging. A sample is to be collected by a phlebotomist using the tubes supplied and then shipped to Cyrex Laboratories for evaluation. Results are sent to your Rupa Health Portal!
