Methods in Allergy/Immunology: Food Challenges

Publication date: Available online 27 July 2017

Since there is no in vitro test, which can accurately predict the clinical relevance of a sensitization to food, the oral food challenge still remains the most reliable procedure to confirm or exclude food allergy and to assess the development of tolerance in children with potentially transient food allergies such as to cow's milk, hen's egg, wheat or soy. Although in the last few years component-resolved diagnostic has improved the food allergy diagnostics, especially in peanut and tree nut allergy, the majority of patients still need to undergo oral food challenge. The following paper will describe in whom and how to perform an oral food challenge as well as its interpretation of the results with a focus on suspected IgE-mediated food allergy.
