Thirty five workers were evaluated through skin prick and Paper radioimmunosorbent tests, respiratory symptom questionnaires, and ventilatory capacity studies. (cdc.gov)
A prick test is often used by allergists when a patient has clear allergy symptoms but is not certain which food is causing those symptoms (or whether the symptoms are caused by a food at all). (practo.com)
Prick tests have a number of advantages. (practo.com)
Prick tests are considered less sensitive than some other allergy tests, and a negative prick test may be followed up with other, more sensitive tests if a practitioner strongly suspects an allergy. (practo.com)
Prick tests are generally not used when a reaction is considered life-threatening. (practo.com)
Allergy tests2
Sinus X-rays, CT scan and allergy tests likely to be ordered by specialist after referral rather than in primary care. (pulsereference.com)
They're among the quickest allergy tests available you can perform them and get results in about 20 to 30 minutes. (practo.com)
Skin2
No differences were found in this prevalence between animal feed workers with positive and negative skin tests to house dust or to fish flour or among those with increased or normal immunoglobulin-E, except for dyspnea. (cdc.gov)
significant mean across shift reductions in ventilatory capacity were noted, particularly for workers with positive skin tests to fish flour antigen. (cdc.gov)
Fish1
The Allergy Plaice Fish test is conducted to calculate the number of lgE antibodies in your blood. (practo.com)
Ventilatory3
Thirty five workers were evaluated through skin prick and Paper radioimmunosorbent tests, respiratory symptom questionnaires, and ventilatory capacity studies. (cdc.gov)
significant mean across shift reductions in ventilatory capacity were noted, particularly for workers with positive skin tests to fish flour antigen. (cdc.gov)
The ventilatory function was test among the asthmatics. (nih.gov)
Serum1
Radioimmunosorbent test was used to examine the serum IgE and TigE. (nih.gov)
Carbon2
The test gas was 0.3% carbon monoxide, 10% helium, and balance nitrogen. (medscape.com)
This test mesaures the level of oxygen and carbon dioxide and pH (or acidity) in the arterial blood. (carlogovoni.it)
Skin tests2
Allergy skin tests were performed using the skin-prick test technique. (medscape.com)
No differences were found in this prevalence between animal feed workers with positive and negative skin tests to house dust or to fish flour or among those with increased or normal immunoglobulin-E, except for dyspnea. (cdc.gov)
