Abstract

Wheat IgE-mediated food allergy in children is one of the most frequent food allergies in westernized countries, affecting between 0.4 and 1% of children. Although 95% predictive decision points have been determined for major allergens such as peanut, egg, and milk, the diagnostic performances of wheat-specific IgE (sIgE) and wheat component testing are not well established.
