Fish Allergenicity Ladder and Parvalbumin Epitopes for Predicting Clinical Cross‐Reactivity and Reintroduction in Chinese Population Open
Background IgE‐mediated fish allergy has long been considered an umbrella term due to the high cross‐reactivity of parvalbumin, the major fish allergen. Yet, clinical tolerance to certain fish highlights allergenicity differences. In this …
