Identification of the soybean hull allergens involved in sensitization to soybean dust in a rural population from Argentina and N‐terminal sequence of a major 50 KD allergen

Abstract

Specific IgE and IgG4 to SH are common in sera from allergic individuals living in rural areas in Argentina. SH contain an IgE binding protein, MW about 50 K, not previously described. Sensitization to this allergen is common in subjects who are repeatedly exposed to soybean dust inhalation.
