Immunology testing at Mayo Clinic Laboratories is supported by a multidisciplinary team of experts who apply the latest research to propel the development of meaningful assays. These tests are used to assist with disease identification, monitoring of disease processes, and monitoring and treatment of rare immunologic illnesses.
Through ongoing research and clinical trials, our experts are pushing the boundaries of knowledge for the most confounding immunologic syndromes, such as mast cell activation syndrome and eosinophilic disorders. Discoveries made through Mayo Clinic-led research are implemented into pioneering testing that helps improve patients’ lives.

The Lupus Foundation of America estimates that at least five million people worldwide have a form of lupus. Yet, the most widely used laboratory tests for patients with this complex condition were developed more than 60 years ago, and physicians need modern, evidence-based tools to provide high-quality care for their patients. That is why Mayo Clinic Laboratories and Progentec Diagnostics joined forces to provide solutions that transform that experience.
