Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Results from large-scale epitope mapping with a peptide microarray have been shown to correlate with clinical features of milk allergy. OBJECTIVES: We sought to assess IgE and IgG4 epitope diversity and IgE affinity in different clinical phenotypes of milk allergy and identify informative epitopes that might be predictive of clinical outcomes of milk allergy. METHODS: Forty-one subjects were recruited...
