  • Title: [A new rapid test for the detection of IgE antibodies in inhalation allergies].
    Author: Loidolt D.
    Journal: Laryngorhinootologie; 1989 Jun; 68(6):355-7. PubMed ID: 2742661.
    Abstract:
    We compared the results of the Skin-Prick-Test, Phadezym-RAST and IgE-Quick, developed by QUIDEL, obtained from 75 patients suffering from an inhalant allergy and 25 controls. The IgE-Quick is a qualitative EIA dipstick test designed for the rapid visual detection of allergen-specific IgE. The IgE-Quick contained nine test pads coated with one of the following purified allergens: Betula pendula, Phleum pratense, Secale cereale, Artemisia vulgare, Felis domestica, Canis familiare, D. pteronyssinus and D. farinae. The results of the Phadezym-RAST and IgE-Quick correlated very well (r = 0.96) and both in-vitro methods corresponded to the Skin-Prick-Test (greater than 90%). The IgE-Quick is the simplest, fastest and easiest in-vitro allergy screen available.
