Determination of the allergenic activity of birch pollen and apple prick test solutions by measurement of β‐hexosaminidase release from RBL‐2H3 cells. Comparison with classical methods in allergen standardization

Abstract

This murine model might be a useful tool in the quality control of allergenic extracts. It combines properties of assays based on standardized antisera and of assays that consider IgE cross-linking properties.
