[Anaphylactic shock to celery and sensitization to ragweed and mugwort. Crossed or concomitant allergy?]. 1984

C Déchamp, and J Michel, and P Deviller, and L F Perrin

Two cases of anaphylactoid reaction from hypersensitivity to celery are reported. The two patients were also allergic to ragweed and mugwort pollen. The RAST inhibition test suggested slight cross-allergenicity between celery and mugwort pollen. The common allergenic factor could have been the alpha-methylene gamma-butyrolactone group.

D011852	Radioallergosorbent Test	An in vitro allergen radioimmunoassay in which allergens are coupled to an immunosorbent. The coupled allergens bind the IgE in the sera of patients which in turn binds radioisotope-labeled anti-IMMUNOGLOBULIN E antibodies.
