Immunoglobulin E Antibodies to Rocuronium

Abstract

The rocuronium ImmunoCAP constitutes a reliable technique to diagnose rocuronium allergy, provided an assay-specific decision threshold is applied. IgE assays based on compounds bearing ammonium epitopes are confirmed to represent reliable tools to diagnose rocuronium allergy. High total IgE titers were observed to affect specificity of the assays.
