چکیده
Methods Thirty-five children (median age: 8.3, range2.2–14.2 yr) reported with immediate reactions to hazelnut ingestion underwent food challenge (DBPCFC) between April 2007 and May 2012. Skin prick test (SPT), specific IgE determination at ImmunoCAP with whole food allergens and with allergen components at ImmunoCAP ISAC microarray chip were performed. The molecular profile of reactivity was compared to SPT and specific IgE testing. This report focuses on the hazelnut-associated allergens Cor.a.1.01, Cor.a.1.04, Cor.a.8 and Cor.a.9.

Background: Diagnosis of food allergy is difficult in children. Food allergies are diagnosed using several methods that include medical histories, clinical examinations, skin prick and serum-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) tests, radio-allergosorbent test (RAST), food challenge, and supervised elimination diets. In this study we evaluated allergies to cow's milk, egg, peanut, and fish in childr...
