Abstract
Five potential allergens of freshwater crab (Somanniathelphusa sinensis), including hemocyanin, have been discovered. Specific IgE to haemocyanin was increased in crab-allergic than in crab-tolerant patients. The add-on of specific IgE to hemocyanin to skin prick test enhanced the specificity of the crab allergy diagnosis. IgE, immunoglobulin E; rHM, recombinant haemocyanin; sIgE, specific IgE; SPT: skin prick test.
期刊介绍:
Clinical & Experimental Allergy strikes an excellent balance between clinical and scientific articles and carries regular reviews and editorials written by leading authorities in their field.
In response to the increasing number of quality submissions, since 1996 the journals size has increased by over 30%. Clinical & Experimental Allergy is essential reading for allergy practitioners and research scientists with an interest in allergic diseases and mechanisms. Truly international in appeal, Clinical & Experimental Allergy publishes clinical and experimental observations in disease in all fields of medicine in which allergic hypersensitivity plays a part.
