A Clinical Study for the Development of a Bee Venom Allergy Diagnostic Kit
To develop a Venom Allergy Diagnostic Kit for the safe use of BVP therapy, we compared the wheal size and redness size from a skin test, before and after BVP injection. In addition, the correlations between total IgE level and the Mada total IgE kit level in plasma and blood were significantly high, indicating that measuring the total IgE level in blood might be clinically valid. In the future, it is necessary to develop a diagnostic device that can detect melittin antibodies to determine the presence of systemic allergic reactions.
