Part Descriptions
LP17394-5 Egg whole
Allergy to whole eggs is one of the most common causes of food allergy in infants and young children. Detection of IgE antibodies to egg white in infancy may predict the development of disease later in life. The main allergens in whole eggs are found in the egg white, but egg yolk also contains specific IgE-binding allergens. Many foods contain egg including salad dressings, breads, breaded foods, marshmallows, prepared soups and beverages, frosting, ice cream and sherbets, sausages, prepared meat, and various sauces. Certain vaccines grown on chick embryos may cause severe allergic reactions in sensitive patients.

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
