Ara h 2 and Ara 6 are the best predictors of severe peanut allergy: a double-blind placebo-controlled study

[Modern allergy diagnostic procedures and their clinical application]

Due to the increasing incidence of allergies, the importance of allergy diagnostic procedures is growing. In addition to a patient's history and prick, intracutaneous and patch testing, serological testing is an important diagnostic procedure. In recent years, tremendous advances have been made in the area of in vitro allergy tests. In particular, it is possible to predict severity and risk management of food allergies with component-based IgE diagnostic procedures. Even new allergy syndromes have been elucidated at the molecular level.
