摘要

OBJECTIVE--Extensive IgE serology in occupational or environmental health studies is often hampered by a lack of technical facilities and finance. The use in population studies of relatively simple and inexpensive enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) was therefore evaluated for the assessment of total serum immunoglobulin E (IgE), and of specific IgE reactions with various common (house dust mites, grass and birch pollen, and cat) or occupational (fungal alpha-amylase and rat urinary protein) allergens. METHODS--Total IgE was measured with a sandwich EIA, calibrated with commercially available IgE standards. Reproducibility was studied by testing pooled normal human serum samples in each of a large series of test plates. A panel of 156 children's serum samples with known IgE values was used to compare the assay with other total IgE assays. A previously developed EIA for anti-yeast IgE was adapted for the measurement of IgE reacting with various common and occupational allergens. Binding of IgE to microwells coated with commercially available allergen extracts, or allergen preparations from our own laboratory, was measured with a monoclonal anti-human IgE antibody and subsequent incubations with biotinylated rabbit anti-mouse Ig and avidin-peroxidase. Panels of serum samples from school children (n = 116), bakery workers (n = 126), and laboratory animal workers (n = 52) were used to study sensitivity and specificity, with reference to skin prick tests as the standard, and to compare the EIAs with commercially available test kits. RESULTS--The detection limit of the EIA for total IgE was 0.5-1 kU/l for undiluted serum samples, and the coefficient of variation between assays was less than 15% at serum concentrations between 1 and 150 kU/l. Results obtained with the panel of 156 children's serum samples were strongly correlated (r2 = 0.86) with IgE concentrations measured previously by radioimmunoassay. The results of the EIA for various occupational allergens correlated very well, both qualitatively and quantitatively, with the results of commercial test kits. Sensitivity and specificity of the EIA results as a predictor of skin prick test reactivity towards common allergens (house dust mite, grass pollen, birch pollen, and cat) were remarkably high (> 80%-90%) in the series of 116 children's serum samples. In a population of bakery workers the specificity of the EIAs was also very high (> 90%). The sensitivity was notably lower (30%-70%) in this adult population, which is, however, in agreement with results reported for conventional IgE tests. CONCLUSION--As the costs were estimated to be at least five to 10-fold lower than those of commercial test kits, the EIAs for total and specific IgE may be very useful tools in epidemiological studies of atopic respiratory or other disorders.
