- Abstract
The article reports the first investigation of immunoglobulin E (IgE)-binding components and the first report of specific serum IgE-binding components as well as serum-specific IgE and IgG4 antibodies to biodiastase in an exposed worker with occupational rhinitis. Results reveal that inhalation of biodiastase powder induced IgE-mediated occupational rhinitis in hospital and pharmaceutical workers, and identify IgE-binding components.
