LP17444-8 Gum arabic
Gum arabic has been used for at least 4,000 years. The substance is a gummy exudate derived from trees of the species Acacia senegal and its close relatives. The trees are found in Sudan, Senegal, Nigeria and other semi-arid regions. The dried exudate is odourless, colorless and tasteless, and often occurs in response to infection. To stimulate production of this exudate, wounds are intentionally made. A distinguishing characteristic among natural gums is that Gum arabic dissolves rapidly in water. Gum arabic may uncommonly induce symptoms of asthma, allergic rhinitis, eczema, contact dermatitis and food allergy in sensitised individuals.

LP32397-9 Ab.IgG4
IgG4 is the least common subtype of IgG, and it has a variety of functions. In the context of allergic disease it is thought to have an immune-inhibitory role in preventing anaphylaxis and is commonly known as a "blocking" antibody. IgG4 binding to an allergen can compete with IgE-mediated binding, thereby inhibiting the activation of mast cells and basophils and IgE-mediated presentation to T-cells. Measuring IgG4 and its ratio to IgE has a role in monitoring allergen specific immunotherapy PMID: 26023323. IgG4 is also thought to have a role in autoimmunity and be involved in a less defined entity known as IgG4-Related Disease, a chronic immune-mediated fibroinflammatory disorder that often manifests with tumor-like masses .https://www.merckmanuals.com/professional/musculoskeletal-and-connective-tissue-disorders/igg4-related-disease/igg4-related-disease
