Purpose:

  • To update calendars of prevalent moulds.
  • To guide practitioners in selecting specific sensitization tests.
  • To inform diagnosis strategies and recommend environmental control measures.

Summary:

  • Skin prick tests and specific IgE (RAST) are key diagnostic tools for mould allergy.
  • Environmental assessments identify mould exposure sources.
