Demystifying Allergic Cross-Reactivity
Presented by Dr. Chris D. Meletis, ND
Exploring the possible role that allergenic cross-reactivity can play may assist you with unravelling the most complex allergy patient’s symptomatic picture. Uncovering relevant patterns of cross-reactivity can serve as a missing link, especially for patients who chronically suffer or experience fluctuating symptoms without apparent cause. In this webinar, we examine how cross-reactivity can be determined in allergen-specific IgE detection assays when the carbohydrate structures between pollen allergens and plant-derived food allergens are similar.
Discover links between these allergens and more:
- Birch tree pollen and celery, carrots, and apples
- Profilins and latex, plant foods, and pollen
- Cross-reactivity between melons, tomato, pineapple, and orange
