Antigen binding-avidity antibody titer measurement tests (for research) Key Characteristics
  • A new test method that multiplies the conventional antibody titer (Antibody Titer, the amount of IgE antibody) by the antigen binding affinity (Binding Avidity,the quality of IgE antibody).
  • Highly sensitive measurement of specific IgE antibodies even in trace amounts of serum.
  • Data predict oral food challenge (OFC) -positivity or -negativity in individual patients.
