Allergen Details:
| Allergen name: | Hev b 1 |
|---|---|
| Lineage: |
Source: Plantae Magnoliopsida Order: Malpighiales Species: Hevea brasiliensis (Para rubber tree (latex)) |
| Biochemical name: | Rubber elongation factor |
| MW(SDS-PAGE): | 14 |
| Allergenicity: | - Of 140 patients with spina bifida (SB), 81% had IgE against Hev b 1, as measured by EAST. Of 105 health care workers allergic to latex, 52% had Hev b 1 specific IgE. - None of the 20 latex-allergic patients tested showed IgE binding to nHev b 1 or rHev b 1 on immunoblot. However, both allergens were recognized by 2 serumpools of patients with SB: medline 96426247. - Hev b 1 was recognized by 18 out of 21 patients with SB, but only by 2 of 14 patients with latex-allergy: medline 94004042 |
