Summary

In this study, fecal and urine samples will be collected from children diagnosed with :

* IgE mediated cow's milk allergy,
* suspected of a cow's milk allergy, but with negative diagnosis
* IgE mediated food allergy other than cow's milk
* healthy brothers and sisters of the first three groups A subset of patients with IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy will be asked to provide a urine and fecal sample yearly for prognostic purposes.

The samples will be analyzed using a technique called metabolomics to identify biomarker candidates with diagnostic and/or prognostic potential. Additionally, microbiome analysis will be performed to map the microbiome of all groups.
