  • Title: Mustard allergy. Two anaphylactic reactions to ingestion of mustard sauce.
    Author: Monreal P, Botey J, Pena M, Marin A, Eseverri JL.
    Journal: Ann Allergy; 1992 Oct; 69(4):317-20. PubMed ID: 1416267.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of anaphylactic reactions set off by the ingestion of a small amount of mustard sauce are described. Mediation by specific IgE to mustard was determined by skin prick tests and radioimmunoassay, which suggested a type I hypersensitivity mechanism. Despite the antigenic potency of mustard, a spice that is consumed frequently, very few cases of hypersensitivity from ingestion have been described.
