Abstract
Approximately 25% of infants tested released > 9% of their blood basophil histamine content in the presence of cow''s milk proteins, indicating a degree or level of latent anaphylactic sensitivity to these allergens. Approximately 10% of infants show a considerably higher level of sensitivity (14-63% histamine release). These findings fulfill an essential tenet of the modified anaphylactic hypothesis for cot death.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
