Molecular allergy diagnosis: status anno 2015.
IgE antibodies play a key role in type I allergic reactions. Today, different in vitro immunoassays for allergen-specific IgE antibodies are available. However, some major issues should be taken into account for correct interpretation of specific IgE (sIgE) antibody results, as these assays do not demonstrate absolute positive and negative predictive values. Therefore, additional diagnostic tes...

متن کاملMolecular Approach to Allergy Diagnosis and Therapy
Presently, allergy diagnosis and therapy procedures are undergoing a transition phase in which allergen extracts are being step-by-step replaced by molecule-based products. The new developments will allow clinicians to obtain detailed information on sensitization patterns, more accurate interpretation of allergic symptoms, and thus improved patients' management. In this respect, recombinant tec...
متن کاملMolecular diagnosis of cow's milk allergy.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To identify and discuss studies on the molecular diagnosis of cow's milk allergy (CMA) with a view to update allergists since a general review of the methodology in 2006. RECENT FINDINGS Seven basic research studies reporting the use of component-resolved diagnostics in CMA were found. All studies were on children positively reacting to a formal challenge with cow's milk. Si...
