Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Antigenic as well as allergenic cross-reactivity was observed among the pollen extracts of Paspalum notatum, bahia (BA); Callistemon citrinis, bottlebrush (BO); and Melaleuca leucadendron, melaleuca (ME). lmmunoblot analysis of SOS-PAGE separated proteins revealed multiple antigenic components in the extracts of all three allergens which cross-reacted with rabbit antisera made to each pollen extract (anti-BA, anti-BO and anti-ME). A unique antigenic component of 15 kD molecular size reacting only to rabbit anti-BA antisera was detected in the bahia extract. Allergenic cross-reactivity among these pollens was strongly suggested by results obtained with skin testing of allergic individuals. A clinical study of 55 …
