[EVALUATION OF THE BASIC PERFORMANCE IN THE SPECIFIC IGE ANTIBODY TEST KITS, VIEW ALLERGY 39 AND SILIS ALLERGY 45+1]

The aim of this study was to evaluate the basic performance and accuracy as a screening test by comparing SiLIS Allergy 45+1 with View Allergy 39.

Measurements were performed with reagents and measuring instruments for View Allergy 39 and SiLIS Allergy 45+1 using blood samples of individuals with a previous history of IgE sensitizations. We compared the results between SiLIS Allergy 45+1 with View Allergy 39.

The agreement rates for positive, negative, judgment, and class of inhalant allergens were 88.7%, 95.1%, 90.8%, and 93.8%, respectively. The correlation rates for food allergens were 90.9%, 69.9%, 78.2%, and 89.2%, respectively. In triplicate measurements, the class agreement rate for SiLIS Allergy 45+1 was 94.2%. In correlation tests with previously approved drugs (FEIA method), the positive agreement rate for specific IgE was 94.9%, negative agreement rate was 95.0%, judgment agreement rate was 95.0%, and the class agreement rate for nonspecific IgE correlation tests was 100.0%, showing good results.

Multi-item screening tests with SiLIS Allergy 45+1 showed high correlation with existing products such as View Allergy 39, suggesting high accuracy as a measurement method.
