An accurate allergen diagnosis can be empowering for everyone, but life-changing for the littlest among us. IgE tests are better standardized when using molecules rather than extracts. However, singleplex screening tests for food or respiratory allergies are still based on extracts.
New research for the NOVEOS system from HYCOR, validates a novel singleplex IgE screening test (NOVEOS SX01) based on a mix of major allergenic molecules, not extracts! This breakthrough approach could change how we approach early screening of children with respiratory allergies.
Study title:
A singleplex IgE test based on a mix of major allergenic molecules: a novel approach to the screening of respiratory allergies
Authors: E. Potapova, P. Matricardi, et. al.
Objective:
To develop and validate NOVEOS SX01, a novel allergen component singleplex IgE screening test for respiratory allergies.
Conclusions:
Novel NOVEOS SX01 molecular test is efficient and accurate in the screening of IgE to airborne allergies. The SX01 IgE screening test, based on a mix of major allergenic molecules from several allergen sources, may be particularly useful in the early screening of children with respiratory allergies.
