[Comparative study between two methods of total and specific IgE assays : radioimmunoassay (RIA) and...

This study shows : concerning total IgE : a good correlation between the results (r = 0,98) and a regression line EIA = f(RIA), y = 0,98 X + 11; concerning specific IgE, most of the dissociations found seemed to be related only to the semi-quantitative definition of classes. Thus it seems that the assay of total as well as specific IgE may be done in good conditions by both methods.
