Sensitization profiles to peanut allergens in Belgium : cracking the code in infants, children and adults

Abstract: Objectives: Peanut allergy shows distinct clinical patterns that can be predicted by component resolved diagnosis. However, data about peanut sensitization profiles in populations with a broad age stratification are scarce. Methods: Sera of 89 peanut allergic patients (age 170 years), 21 infants (<1 year) with atopic dermatitis (AD) sensitized to peanut, 24 age matched peanut-tolerant individuals with positive specific IgE (sIgE) to peanut and 15 healthy individuals were tested for sIgE reactivity to rAra h 1, rAra h 2, rAra h 3, rAra h 8, rAra h 9 and rBet v 1 (FEIA ImmunoCAP, Th...
