burgeps	Elms 2005	provides some evidence for specific IgE to colophony adducts for the first time. No evidence for diagnostic sensitivity/specificity against specific challenge
burgeps	Beach 2007	Specific IgE sensitivity 73.3% (64-81)High MW; 31.2% (23-41)Low MW. Specificity 79.0% (50-93) High MW; 88.9% (77-92) Low MW
burgeps	Campo 2007	IgE to HDI polymers generally more sensitive than monomers. Sensitivity (vs challenge tests) 21.7 vs 8.7% (n=23
burgeps	Smith 2007	The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the latex-specific IgE serology was 54% and 87.5%, respectively, in comparison with NAL skin tests. The addition of rHev b 5 to the ImmunoCAP® (enhanced latex) allergosorbent altered the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the ImmunoCAP® to 77% and 75%, respectively. NB no gold standard
burgeps	Gomez-Olles 2007	The optimal EIA procedure for soy aeroallergen exposure assessment depends on the type of work environment and the local soy dust composition. Thus, the type of work environment should always be taken into account in future soy allergy studies in order to prevent a possible underestimation of the workers' actual risk of developing soy allergy
