Oranges are popular citrus fruits with orange peel and juicy segments. They are grown in warm climate regions and are an important food product rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, thiamine, folate, and pectin. They are used both fresh and in the food industry, cosmetics, and medicine. The main allergenic components of orange include Cit s1, Cit s2, Cit s3, Cit s IFR, which can cause cross-allergic reactions with other products.
The test helps detect orange allergy, which is important due to the widespread use of this fruit in food and cosmetics. Knowing the sensitization level helps avoid potentially dangerous reactions and monitor treatment effectiveness. Detection of cross-reactions aids in comprehensive diagnosis of food allergies.
FEIA (Fluorescence Enzyme Immunoassay), ImmunoCAP (Solid-phase Immunofluorescence) – quantitative determination of sensitization level to orange allergen.
