[Application of recombinant latex allergens in diagnostics of occupational latex allergy].
Over many years, allergy to natural rubber latex has been a major problem among health care workers (HCW). The diagnosis of occupational allergy requires methods of high diagnostic accuracy in view of certification implications (e.g., a sick worker quits a job). With the development of molecular methods, the frequency of application of recombinant allergens it the diagnostics of allergic diseas...
متن کاملSpecific IgE response to purified and recombinant allergens in latex allergy
BACKGROUND In recent years, allergy to natural rubber latex has emerged as a major allergy among certain occupational groups and patients with underlying diseases. The sensitization and development of latex allergy has been attributed to exposure to products containing residual latex proteins. Although improved manufacturing procedures resulted in a considerable reduction of new cases, the pote...
متن کاملOccupational allergy to food-derived allergens
Although most cases of food allergy are related to food ingestion, occupational exposure to foods by contact or inhalation may also lead to adverse reactions, inducing contact urticaria or dermatitis, asthma, rhinitis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and anaphylaxis. Almost 10–25% of cases of allergic occupational asthma and rhinitis are due to food products. Animal and vegetal highmolecular weig...
متن کاملAllergens and molecular diagnostics of shellfish allergy
Shellfish belongs to "The Big 8" food groups causing allergy, which often does not outgrow during childhood. Shellfish is one of the main food allergens in adults and constitutes a diverse group of species subdivided into crustaceans and mollusks, which seem to include similar but also different allergens. Several pan-allergens are characterized in detail, including tropomyosin and arginine kin...
متن کاملIgE-Binding Properties of Recombinant Food Allergens
Recombinant DNA technology is a common procedure to produce allergenic proteins in vitro. To date, more than 40 food allergens from fruits, vegetables, nuts, milk and seafood have been expressed as recombinant proteins. Since recombinant proteins can be produced in large quantities and in controlled quality, they promise to be suitable tools for precise diagnostics and research applications. "H...
