[Cross reaction of specific IgE antibodies directed against cow's milk and bovine hair (author's transl)].
Sera of 25 children living in town were examined by means of RAST on the presence of IgE antibody against milk and cow's hair antigens. 18 cases had IgE antibodies reacting with milk and 9 with cow's hair. There was correlation between the levels of these antibodies with the exception of two cases. The results give evidence that half of the asthmatic children allergic to milk will react with bronchospasm in the cases if they ar exposed to inhalation of cow's hair.
