RAST
classical ImmunoCAP assay
RAST1
40 µL
Single-analyte assay: single analysis of specific IgE directed against
single allergens, single allergen components or mixtures of allergens
ISAC (Immuno Solid-phase Allergy Chip )
ImmunoCAP ISAC (16 spots per mm2)
Multiplex assay: multiple analysis of specific
IgE directed against allergen components in one
single run
ISAC112
30 µL

Pan-allergens
– risks
and severity
initially
CCD was considered
to be important
to explain cross-reactivity
Cross-reactive
Carbohydrate
Determinants
specific
glycan
epitope
mainly “plant” derived pan-allergens

ISAC and Component-resolved Diagnosis
Conclusions and remarks
 Component-resolved Diagnosis can give insights in
sensibilisations for separate allergen components
intra-allergenic heterogeneity
 Besides separate allergen components groups of panallergens can be distinguished
inter-allergenic homogeneity
 Components and pan-allergens are being associated with risks
 ISAC is a multiplex assay (an extensive number of components)
 RAST is a single analyte assay (limited number of components)
