Immunoblot, Chemiluminescence and ImmunoCap Allergen Specific IgE Evaluation of in Allergic Rhinitis Patients

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Diagnoses Disease

• Registration Number: NCT06137495
• Lead Sponsor: Zagazig University

Brief Summary

In the present study the investigators assay house dust mites (HDMs) IgE in sera of allergic rhinitis patients (AR) using immunoblotting, chemiluminescence, and ImmunoCAP assays to compare between the accuracy of both immunoblotting and chemiluminescence assays, and ImmunoCAP as gold standard.

Detailed Description

All allergic rhinitits patients who were monosensitized to mixed HDMs, identified by SPT, will be subjected to complete history taking and assessment of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, performance of skin prick test and measurement of total serum IgE, measurement of specific IgE by Chemiluminescence Immunoassa, immunoblot assay and ImmunoCAP™ Phadiatop™. The patients will be followed-up for 6 months.
