Latex allergy
Patients with latex allergy should be vaccinated with latex-free vaccines and equipment. The allergy workup in presence of a suspicion of sensitization to latex is as follow: I) skin prick testing performed with latex extract; II) serological test with the determination of specific IgE to latex (rHev b1, rHev b3 and rHev b5), hevein (rHev b6.02), profilin (rHev b8) and class I chitinase (rHev b11).
