Incidence of IgG short-term sensitizing antibodies in an allergic population
Abstract
Heat-stable, immunoglobulin G, short-term sensitizing antibodies (IgG S-T S) were sought in serum from 149 allergic patients who had strongly positive immediate skin tests to inhalant allergens. The sera were tested by passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) in monkeys. No IgG S-T S antibodies were demonstrated in 169 tests with a variety of allergens. Antibody with the characteristics of IgE was demonstrated in 47% of monkey PCA tests and, in an additional 34% of sera. IgE antibody to the same allergen was demonstrated by radioallergosorbent testing (RAST).
