From all participants we secured information on age, gender and clinical symptoms, including rhinoconjunctivitis, asthma and eczema. Each student tested his or her blood during the practical course in immunology using the ImmunoCAP Rapid test kit, a semi-quantitative point-of-care test (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc, Waltham MA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions and a short film sequence (http://www.phadia.com/en/Products/Allergy-testing-products/ImmunoCAP-Rapid). In addition, senior staff of the University Clinic for Immunology supervised the testing. We entered anonymised personal data and the results from blood tests into an electronic database for statistical analysis.
Specific IgE antibodies against the 10 common aeroallergens cat dander (e1), birch (t3, Betula verrucosa), mugwort (w6, Artemisia vulgaris), timothy grass (g6, Phleum pratense), cockroach (i6, Blatella germanica), dog dander (e5), olive (t9, Olea europaea), wall pellitory (w21, Parietaria judaica), house dust mite (d1, Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus) and mould (m6, Alternaria alternata) were measured. The 2007 test (ImmunoCAP Rapid wheeze/rhinitis child) contained egg white (f1) and cow’s milk (f2) instead of cockroach and mould.

We secured information from a self-reported questionnaire on age, gender, and occurrence of seasonal or perennial rhinitis, asthma, and eczema from all participants.
Each student tested his or her blood during the practical course in immunology, using the ImmunoCAP Rapid test kit, a qualitative point-of-care test (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc, Waltham, MA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions and watching a short film sequence (http://www.phadia.com/en/Products/Allergy-testing-products/ImmunoCAP-Rapid). In addition, senior staff of the University Clinic for Immunology supervised testing. We entered anonymized personal data and the results from blood tests into an electronic database for statistical analysis.

The 2007 test (ImmunoCAP Rapid wheeze/rhinitis child) contained egg white (f1) and cow’s milk (f2) instead of cockroach and mold.
All participants were verbally informed and gave their oral informed consent in handing in the questionnaire and the test results.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
