High prevalence of lipid transfer protein sensitization in apple allergic patients with systemic symptoms.

<h4>Background</h4>Apple allergy manifests as two main groups of clinical entities reflecting different patterns of allergen sensitization: oral allergy syndrome (OAS) and generalized symptoms (GS).<h4>Objective</h4>We analysed the sensitization profile to a wide panel of dif...
