Use of Dialyzed Venoms in the Radioallergosorbent Test
International Archives of Allergy and Applied Immunology, 2009Optimal concentrations of honeybee, hornet and yellow jacket venoms were used in the radioallergosorbent test (RAST) before and after dialysis. RASTtiters in the majority of sera from insect-allergic patients increased significantly with the dialyzed yellow jacket and hornet venom-coupled discs.

Detection of allergy to nuts by the radioallergosorbent test
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1976The diagnosis of food allergy is often difficult to make by conventional means. Histories are frequently ambiguous, and skin testing is of dubious reliability because of the number of false-positive and false-negative reactions. We have evaluated the radioallergosorbent test (RAST) for the in vitro measurement of the specific IgE antibodies to nuts ...

The radioallergosorbent test (RAST) in nasal polyposis
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1979SummaryThe incidence of atopy among 64 adults undergoing polypectomy was 25 per cent. Among these atopic patients it was usual for the polyp IgE level to exceed that in the serum. Similarly,D. pteronyssinus-specific IgE was more commonly identified in polyp fluid by the RAST technique than in serum.

Diagnosis of food allergy by the radioallergosorbent test
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1976The radioallergosorbent test (RAST) was positive in 52.5% of 200 sera representing 200 food hypersensitivities from 108 patients with a history of definite immediate-type reactions to foods. Corresponding prick test was performed for 170 of the sera. The latter test was positive in 70%, the RAST was positive in 52%, and iether prick test or RAST was ...

The use of the radioallergosorbent test in the diagnosis of Hymenoptera anaphylaxis
Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1978SummaryIgE antibody levels to Hymenoptera (honey bee, hornet, wasp or yellow jacket) venom or venom sac were measured in the serum of ninety‐six patients with a history of immediate hypersensitivity reactions to these insect stings. Normal levels of IgE antibody were found in fourty‐four of these patients tested.

Radioallergosorbent test (RAST) studies with insolubilized polysaccharides
Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1976SummaryPolysaccharide preparations from Aspergillus fumigatus and Candida albicans when used with some human sera were found to fix complement and precipitate with specific antibodies present in the sera. Precipitins consisted predominantly of IgG with traces of IgM and IgA.

A Radioallergosorbent Test (RAST) for Ascaris lumbricoides
Allergy, 1982An antigen from Ascaris lumbricoides obtained from infested human has been prepared which can be used for detecting immune responses to Ascaris using the skin‐prick test. A comparison of immune skin responses between this antigen and the commercial (Bencard ®) Ascaris suum antigen has been made and a RAST technique for the in vitro detection of ...

Lymphocyte Transformation and Radioallergosorbent Tests in Drug Hypersensitivity
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1980An in-vitro lymphocyte transformation test was performed on 252 patients, some of whom were suspected to have hypersensitivities to antibiotics, aspirin, methyldopa, allopurinol, or halothane. Overall, the proportion of patients with clinically documented drug reactions who had positive tests was higher than the corresponding proportion of patients ...

The radioallergosorbent test in the diagnosis of canine atopic disease
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1978The radioallergosorbent test (RAST) was adapted for use in the dog employing purified anti-canine IgE. The agreement between positive RAST and positive skin test ranged from 82% for ragweed to only 12.5% for dandelion. Agreement between negative tests in the case of all allergens was 100%.

The development of a radioallergosorbent test (RAST) for murine IgE antibodies
Journal of Immunological Methods, 1980A purified monoclonal IgE preparation, isolated from the ascitic fluid of mice bearing a hybridoma secreting IgE with specificity to ovalbumin, was used for the production of goat anti-murine IgE (GAME) antiserum, which was then rendered monospecific for the epsilon chain.
