Mammalian meat allergy can develop after tick bites that introduce the allergen galactose-alpha-1,3-galacotose, which is also found in non-primate mammalian meat. It is characterized by a delayed onset allergic reaction that can result in dermatological, gastrointestinal and/or anaphylactic symptoms...
For the field of food allergy and anaphylaxis, this discovery led to the finding that IgE Ab to alpha-gal was implicated in the delayed food allergy to mammalian meat (e.g., beef, pork, lamb). Not only have those studies opened up investigations of how the IgE response to alpha-gal ...
- Retrospective analysis of 77 children admitted to a PED for suspected acute allergy (AA). Results. Of the 77 eases reviewed, 61 were included because they had clinical manifestations consistent with AA. 40 had symptoms suggestive of AAN, and 21 had isolated urticaria (IU). Average age was...
food allergymammalian meatIn 2009, we reported a novel form of delayed anaphylaxis to red meat related to serum IgE antibodies to the oligosaccharide galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose (alpha-gal). Although patients were remarkably consistent in their description of a 3- to 6-hour delay between ...

This chapter uses Object-Oriented Ontology (OOO) to explore a different motivation for vegetarianism: alpha-gal, a "novel and severe" food allergy linked to the consumption of mammalian meat caused by the bite of a diseased lone-star tick. Discovered in 2009, this life-threatening condition ...
