Allergen Component Testing in the Diagnosis of Food Allergy

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2015
IgE-mediated food allergies are an important public health problem, affecting 5 % of adults and 8 % of children, with numerous studies indicating that the prevalence is increasing. Food allergic reactions can range in severity from mild to severe and life threatening.

Allergenic components of isolates ofcladosporium herbarum

Grana, 1991
Abstract Six isolates of Cladosporium herbarum, IMI 49630, IMI 46932, IMI 96220, CBS 121.47, CBS 180.50 and ATCC 38810 were grown on synthetic revised tobacco medium for 28 days. Extracts of the mycelia were prepared and their biochemical and immunological properties were examined. Two isolates, IMI 49632 and CBS 180.50 did not give a significant yield

Allergenic components in three different species of Penicillium: crossreactivity among major allergens

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1996
SummaryBackground Penicillium species have been considered as important causative agents of extrinsic bronchial asthma. However, little is known about the allergens of these ubiquitous airborne fungal species.Objective This study cotnpares the allergenic profiles and allergenic crossreactivity among allergens of three prevaletit airborne ...

Chinese expert consensus on allergen component resolved diagnosis

Pediatric Allergy and Immunology
AbstractBackgroundAllergen component resolved diagnosis (CRD) is a method for identifying specific protein molecules that cause hypersensitivity. Unlike traditional methods that use crude allergen extracts containing multiple component species, CRD focuses on individual allergen protein molecules for more precise diagnosis.

Is abietic acid the allergenic component of colophony?

Contact Dermatitis, 1985
In order to investigate whether abietic acid itself is the allergenic component of Colophony, 2 commercial samples were extensively purified and tested in guinea pies and in colophony‐sensitive patients. In the modified FCAT method, sensitization was obtained with Portuguese colophony and when challenged with puritied abietic acid, the animals showed ...

The Performance of a New Component-Based Allergen-Microarray in Clinical Practice

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2006
Background:  Currently, the diagnosis of IgE‐mediated allergy is based on allergen‐specific history and diagnostic procedures using natural allergen extracts for in vivo and in vitro tests.Objective:  The aim of the study was to comparatively analyse a new component‐based allergen‐microarray and the ‘quasi‐standard’ ImmunoCAP® for their clinical ...

Microarray of allergenic component-based diagnosis in food allergy

Current Opinion in Allergy & Clinical Immunology, 2011
The determination of specific IgE (sIgE) against allergenic components fixed in a solid support that is provided as a microarray of high capacity and allows a more precise evaluation in the food allergy diagnosis. In this review, we will analyze the results obtained to date with this technology applied to the component-based diagnosis of food allergy ...

Specific IgE to individual allergen components: Peanut

The measurement of IgE to peanut extract has been incorporated into the diagnosis of peanut allergy since the 1970s. After Western-blotting provided insight in the relevance of specific allergens present in crude peanut extract, the role of individual allergenic protein became clear. Despite the identification of 17 different peanut allergen components,

Studies on shared antigenic/allergenic components among fungi

Allergy, 1995
Fungal allergens have been found to be one of the most prevalent aeroallergens in India. Knowledge of shared/unique components among different fungi is necessary for proper diagnosis and treatment of patients allergic to fungi. In the present study, crude extracts (CE) of 11 common fungi (Alternaria alternata, Aspergillus flavus, Asp.

Levels of complement components during allergen‐induced asthma

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1978
SummaryThe levels of circulating complement components C3 and C4, total haemolytic complement, CH50, as well as evidence of complement activation, have been studied in peripheral blood samples during allergen‐induced asthma. No evidence of activation of the complement system was detected in these studies.
