Overview

Absolute Eosinophil Count (AEC)

Absolute Eosinophil Count (AEC)

The Absolute Eosinophil Count (AEC) is a specific component of a complete blood count (CBC) with differential. It measures the exact number of eosinophils present in a cubic millimeter of your blood.


This count is considered more clinically useful than just the percentage of eosinophils, as it provides a true measure of the total population of these cells.

Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell (leukocyte) that plays a key role in the immune system. Their main functions are:


  1. Fighting Parasites: They are mobilized to destroy parasitic infections (such as hookworm or tapeworm).
  2. Modulating Allergic Reactions: They are involved in the inflammatory response associated with allergies and asthma. They contain granules filled with enzymes and toxic proteins that are released to deal with threats.

Frequently asked questions on " Absolute Eosinophil Count (AEC) "

A high AEC, or eosinophilia (above $500\text{ cells}/\mu\text{L}$), strongly suggests an active immune reaction. The most common causes are: Allergic Conditions: Asthma, eczema, hay fever (allergic rhinitis), or severe drug reactions. Parasitic Infections: Especially by worms or other parasitic organisms.Eosinophilic Disorders: Diseases like eosinophilic esophagitis or hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES).

In asthma, a high AEC often indicates an eosinophilic phenotype (type) of asthma. This knowledge helps guide treatment, as this specific type of asthma often responds well to certain anti-inflammatory medications, including inhaled or oral corticosteroids and newer targeted biologic therapies.
