Title: [Determination of total IgE (tIgE) and specific IgE (sIgE) using the IMX and MATRIX techniques]. Author: Sabbah A, Drouet M, Lauret MG. Journal: Allerg Immunol (Paris); 1993 Jun; 25(6):253-60. PubMed ID: 8357474. Abstract: This study, on 185 subjects, has given evaluation of total IgE by the IMX technique in comparison with CAP PRIST, and of the MATRIX* technique for the measurement of sIgE in comparison with the reference technique of CAP RAST**, skin tests and clinical history. The two techniques of CAP and MATRIX are judged to be comparable (Correlation percentage 88.2%). The correlation of MATRIX with skin tests and clinical history is satisfactory (respectively 85.9% and 95%). The results were obtained with four allergens (D. pteronyssinus, Timothy grass, cat and dog). Separate assays confirmed the reliability of the technique.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
