Clinical use

Alergens: fragrant tomka,pileówka, meadow thyme, rye pollen, perennial ragweed, common mugwort, lanceolate plantain, white quinoa, nettle, rapeseed Allergic diseases are among the most common conditions of modern civilization. It is estimated that between 10-30% of the population suffers from allergies, depending on the form of the condition. Most of the allergic diseases are chronic and patients must be treated systematically, sometimes for life (such is the case with bronchial asthma). Allergy, or hypersensitivity, is the term used to describe an excessively heightened, tissue-damaging response of the immune system upon contact with a foreign antigen (allergen). Allergens bind to specific antibodies from the immunoglobulin E group. They can sensitize the body by inhalation, ingestion, by skóhand or parenterally. Immunological diagnosis of allergies uses determinations of total IgE (cIgE) and specific IgE (sIgE) concentrations, i.e. antibodies against specific allergens (sensitizing substances). They are an alternative to skór tests (they exclude false-negative results in people with extensive skór tests or in patients with skór hyperresponsiveness). They are safe and can be performed in any person of any age, including children or the elderly and even in patientsów requiring continuous administration of anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory drugs (these drugs do not affect the results of sIg determinations). In this method - póilitative, the result is given on a scale from 0 (means the absence of detected specific IgE) to 4 (detected antibody present in very high concentration). Based on the strength of the immune response, we can assess the extent to which the body reacts to particular foods. To do this, we rely on a 5-point scale (from 0 to 4), with a grade of 4 and 3 indicating a very strong immune reaction, a grade of 2 indicating a medium reaction, and a grade of 0 and 1 indicating that antibodies appeared in very small amounts or not at all.
