In the in vivo diagnosis of food allergy, it has been proven that the skin prick-prick test is sometimes more sensitive than skin prick test with commercial extracts. The aim of our study was to prove that handling fresh foods prepared for the prick-prick test with latex gloves can tamper...

The prevalence of clinical sensitivity to natural rubber latex (NRL) has increased dramatically in the last 15 years. In the health care setting this has been associated with the increased use of latex gloves. It does not, however, explain the observation that IgE antibodies to NRL are detected...

Since the conditions associated with TILT do not appear to involve IgE, allergy tests (e.g., skin tests, blood tests for IgE) often are not helpful except to rule out “true” allergic conditions; that is, allergies to natural antigens such as pollen, dust, mold, animal dander, and ...

It has been reported that some allergy symptoms can be influenced by other food components consumed along with kiwifruit [64]. Kiwifruit allergy is often cross-reactive with other allergies, such as that to birch and grass pollen. It also appears to have cross-reactivity to the latex ...
[2,3]. nsLTPs are found in high concentrations in the epidermal tissues of fruits and are the main allergens of fruits of the Rosaceae family. In addition, allergenic nsLTPs have been found in nuts, seeds, vegetables, pollen, and latex fromHevea brasiliensis[4]. Allergy to nsLTP involves...
Furthermore, kiwi fruit allergens can cross-react with other common allergens like latex and birch pollen, necessitating clear labeling of functional products to inform consumers of the potential risks. In regions with a high incidence of these related allergies, the use of kiwi bioactives may need...
