Tomato is one of the most popular fruits worldwide, widely used in both raw and processed forms. It contains many nutrients but can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Tomato allergy is often associated with cross-reactivity to birch pollen, grasses, other fruits, and plant allergens.

Tomato allergy manifests as oral allergy syndrome, urticaria, dermatitis, systemic reactions, rhinitis, abdominal pain, and anaphylaxis. There are 26 known potential allergenic components in tomatoes, including profilins, lipid transfer proteins, and β-glucanases. High cross-reactivity exists with allergens from birch pollen, grasses, bell pepper, cherry, pineapple, banana, nuts, latex, and other plant sources. Identification of allergenic components helps avoid allergen exposure and prevent allergic reactions.

  • Diagnosis of allergic reactions to tomatoes.
  • Assessment of sensitization level and risk of allergy development.
  • Monitoring therapy effectiveness.
  • Evaluation of sensitization level after allergen avoidance.
  • Assessment of immune system status.

FEIA (Fluorescence Enzyme Immunoassay), ImmunoCAP (Solid-phase Immunofluorescence) – quantitative determination.
