Abstract
The sensitivity and specificity of the Pharmacia CAP System, a new in vitro assay for measuring IgE antibodies, were evaluated in a multicentric study on 286 allergic patients and 243 normal subjects. Sensitivity was 95.5%, with results significantly better than RAST for some allergens, and specificity was excellent, 98.1%.
