Basophil activation test using recombinant allergens: highly specific diagnostic method complementing routine tests in wasp venom allergy.

Basophil activation test using recombinant allergens: highly specific diagnostic method complementing routine tests in wasp venom allergy.

BACKGROUND: Skin testing can expose allergic subjects to potential systemic reactions, sensitization against unrelated proteins, and increased risk of future sting reactions. Therefore the continuous improvement of in vitro diagnostic methods is desirable. Recombinant allergens have been shown to im...
