چکیده
Egg allergies can usually be confirmed by the combination of medical history, prick test, and specific IgE. Prick test with native hen’s egg is more sensitive that with commercial egg extracts [4, 5]. It must be kept in mind that different assays for specific IgE provide variable, not uniformous results considering the absolute values. In case of follow-up to verify immune tolerance development, the same assay should be used [6]. Abstract
