P97 - Characteristic of protein sensibilisation in infants

Methods We examined 85 infants (39 girls, 46 boys), 1.5 – 18 months old, who were fed by artificial milk formulas. Gastrointestinal symptoms of food allergy were diagnosed in 45 (52.9%) children with diarrhea and in 40 (47.1%) children with constipation. The control group consisted of 25 healthy infants of the same age. The level of total IgE, cow and goat milk proteins IgE allergenspecific antibodys in coprofiltrates were measured by immunoenzymometric method using the spectrophotometer “Sunrise” (Belgium), with test-systems “Allergopharma” and “Dr. Fooke” (Germany).
