Özet
Objective: It is aimed to compare two specific methods of allergen tests in patients who have diagnosed as asthma with history, physical examination and breath function test and to evaluate the results by comparison with prick test as a standart in this study. Method: In this study serum samples had taken from 52 asthmatic patients. Using both spesific IgE RAST and UniCAP System FEIA; the specific IgE titres have been measured. Then the results have been compared statistically. Results: Sixty one parameters were positive with prick test. RAST method showed positive results for 46 parameters. 23 parameters were positive with UniCAP System. Conclusion: These results showed that RAST method shows better correlation with prick test than UniCAP System. In asthmatic patients; skin prick test and measurement of specific IgE levels are useful for detection of allergen. In asthmatic patients; if skin prick test and spesifik IgE levels gave similiar results, it could be possible to say that this allergen is the agent of allergic disease.
