An employee of a pet food plant developed a severe cough, rhinitis, and conjunctivitis, and skin tests confirmed guar allergy. The symptoms resulted in obstructive sleep apnea which resolved after absence from work and recurred after rechallenge with guar gum dust (8). [Pg.387]

Prick skin tests are used to screen patients with suspected IgE-mediated food allergies. In Table 3.3.5, there is a list of clinical conditions in which the methods of IgE detection are indicated (Chapman et al., 2006). [Pg.132]

There are cases that indicate that goat protein allergens other than casein can be involved in food allergies to GM and even small quantities of protein can elicit clinical symptoms. A 27-year-old female patient experienced two episodes of urticaria after ingestion of goat s cheese. She tolerated cow s milk, dairy products, and sheep cheese but her skin tests were positive for goat s milk and goat s cheese (Tavares et al. 2007). [Pg.202]

Secondary intervention studies are few. A study in Japan [240(Ib)] identified infants at high risk of house dust mite allergy and asthma postnatally, on the basis of early manifestations of atopy (i.e. eczema and food allergy). Children were enrolled during the 1st year of life and randomised to house dust mite prevention which resulted in a substantial reduction in house dust mite allergen levels. At the 1-year follow-up, children in the active treatment group had lower levels of IgE antibody, prevalence of positive skin prick test responses to house dust mite, and lower incidence of wheezing episodes. Follow-up is awaited. [Pg.72]

Sensitisation to airborne allergens demonstrated by IgE antibodies in serum or positive skin test reactions in an otherwise healthy individual has been demonstrated not only to be predictive of food allergy but also of other IgE-mediated diseases like asthma and rhinoconjunctivitis. [Pg.132]

Most food allergies may be clinically identified through double-blind placebo-controlled crossover food challenge studies. However, due to inherent risks involved in such procedures, food allergies are often identified, at least initially, using a variety of tests either alone or in combination. For example, skin prick tests alone or in combination with patient IgE reactivity assays may be nsed for snch... [Pg.69]
