title: [So-called "celery-carrot-mugwort-spice syndrome." RAST results with new spice discs].
abstract: RAST investigations on the sera of 27 patients suffering from celery allergy showed specific IgE to mugwort and birch in 15 cases; sensitization to mugwort or birch alone only occurred in 5 and 7 cases, respectively. Positive RAST results were also obtained with several spices. We found a relationship between spice and celery allergy.
