Seasonal influence on serum and receptor-bound IgE in pollinosis

Ann Allergy. 1990 Jun;64(6):542-6.

Abstract

Analysis of the correlation between bound and free IgE in 32 patients with pollinosis before and during the pollen season disclosed no correlation between bound and free IgE in rhinitic patients before the pollen season, while there was correlation during the season. In the asthmatic patients there was good correlation before the pollen season rather than during it.
