Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop a tool to better predict clinical allergy to peanut, so that those who are skin test positive but non allergic will not have to unnecessarily avoid peanut, and those with true allergy can be diagnosed, possibly without oral ingestion challenge, and treated appropriately

Conditions

  • Peanut Hypersensitivity

Interventions

PROCEDURE

allergy skin testing

PROCEDURE
