What does the test detect?

In celiac disease, an autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease, the body reacts with an immune response to the gluten protein, which is found in many foods such as bread, pasta, beer, pizza, cereal or breaded meat.Gluten is broken down by the enzyme tissue transglutaminase (TG2) in the small intestinal lining in healthy people.However, in people with celiac disease, the body produces antibodies of the IgA class (antiTg-IgA) against the protein gliadin and tissue transglutaminase.The intestinal lining is mistakenly recognized as harmful and attacked, leading to inflammation.

The at-home test for celiac disease detects antiTg-IgA antibodies in the blood within 10 minutes.The accuracy of the test, proven by performance evaluation studies, is 98%.The test is straightforward, fast, discreet, mobile and reliable, with results available within 5 minutes.
