    Notes: We present the results of allergen content evaluation in 80 dust samples from 31 homes of atopic patients from two climatic areas (humid and subhumid), collected in two seasons of the year (autumn and winter). Monoclonal antibody-based immunoassays were used to quantify Der p 1, Der f 1, Der 2, Lep d 1, and Pel d 1. The results were compared according to climate, season, and the type of sensitization (Pyroglyphidae mites, storage mites, or grass pollens). We underline the predominance of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (89% of samples) over D. farinae (16% of samples) in our environment. Der p 1 rates were higher in the humid area (Mann-Whitney P 〈0.001), especially in the autumn (Wilcoxon P 〈0.05). Lep d 1 was detected in 23 % of samples and Lep d 1 levels were higher in the homes of patients sensitized to storage mites (Mann-Whitney P 〈0.05), whereas this allergen was not detected in the homes of pollen-allergic patients. Pel d 1 was detected in nine of the 31 homes (16% of samples) although there was a cat in only one home.

    Notes: Background: Asthma elicited by sulfite ingestion has been mainly described in steroid-dependent and in non-atopic asthmatics. We have studied a group of 18 young extrinsic asthmatics who presented with asthma attacks immediately after eating pickled onions.Objective: The aim of this study is to ascertain if these asthma attacks are elicited by sulfites contained in pickled onions and the influence of the dose and pH of onions.Methods: The bronchial hyperreactivity of the patients was assessed by a methacho-line challenge test. Oral challenge tests were performed with sodium metabisulfite (MBS) diluted in lemon juice at pH 4.2 and at pH 3.3 (only in patients who did not react with pH 4.2). Two types of pickled onion, Spanish and Dutch pickled onions, were used for oral challenge in seven of the patients. The Monier-Williams method was used to measure the SO2 concentration in pickled onions.Results: The oral provocation test with MBS, pH 4.2, elicited a positive response in six patients (33.3%) and the test at pH3.3 was positive in three out of 12. No significant difference in PD20 values was found between these groups. Three of the seven patients challenged with Spanish pickled onions had a positive reaction but had no reaction with Dutch pickled onions. The SC2 concentration in Spanish pickled onions varied between 765 and 1182 ppm while in Dutch pickled onions were 200 ppm; this exceeded the permitted level (100 ppm). SO2 release in Spanish pickled onion samples was nearly 2.5 times higher when the pH of the sample decreased from 4.2 to 3.3.Conclusion: High levels of SO2 in Spanish pickled onions, and their low pH (3.3) would be the responsible factors of the asthmatic outbreaks after ingestion of Spanish pickled onions by these patients.

    Diversity of allergens causing occupational asthma among cereal workers as demonstrated by exposure procedures (1996)

    Notes: Background Occupatiotial asthma among cereal workers is frequently due to cereals but other allergens can also be responsible.Objective We evaluated the allergens causing occupational asthma in the patients who had been diagnosed in our Department during the last 5 years. Specific bronchial reactivity to the implicated allergens was assessed and compared by standardized bronchial challenge.Methods Twenty-one patients (12 bakers, three millers and six farmers) were studied. We carried out in vivo tests (skin and challenge tests) and in vitro tests (specific IgE measurement) with cereals, enzymes, soyabean, storage mites and egg. A definitive diagnosis was established by means of specific bronchial provocation tests (BPT), except in three patients in whom it could not be carried out due to the severity of their asthma. In these cases the causative agent had to be determined by means of conjunctival challenge.Results Cereals were the main sensitizers among bakers (75%) and farmers (66%). Bakers were also sensitive to a-amylase (41%) and soyabean (25%), and farmers, to soyabean (33%) and storage mites (33%). Occupational asthma was due to cereals, soyabean and storage mites among millers.Conclusions Besides cereals, other allergens such as enzymes, leguminous, egg and storage mites can be the causative agents of occupational asthma among cereal workers. Sensitization to different allergens in the different jobs is very likely due to differences in exposure.

    Anaphylaxis from cow's milk casein (1996)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Allergy 51 (1996), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1398-9995

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: The case of a 35-ear-old woman who suffered anaphylaxis after the ingestion of milk or milk-containing products is presented. Symptoms also appeared after the patient used a cosmetic which contained casein. Skin prick tests, specific IgE measurement, and immunoblotting were carried out with cow's milk extract, and its purified proteins: casein, β-lactoglobulin, and α-lactalbumin. Specific IgE to cow's milk casein was detected with the three tests. Immunoblotting revealed one band of 24 kDa approximately corresponding to the β-fraction of casein. Negative results to β-lactoglobulin and α-lactalbumin were obtained with the three methods. Symptoms were controlled by rigorous dietary and behavior measures.
