Abstract:
Objective:To identify the allergens which can react with Chinese allergic patients in shrimp and crab ,and analysis their reaction-rates.This results would provide foundation for further research on allergen-detection and desensitization therapy.Methods:Allergen components in Metapenaeus ensis ,Macrobrachium rosenbergii and Charybdis feriata by using 46 portions of shrimp(crab) allergic patients’ serum IgE in Western blot.Results:The reactions between shrimps and allergic patients ’ serum IgE were stronger than that between crab and serum.32-38 kD Tropomysin (TM),40 kD Arginine kinase (AK),60-80 kD Hemocyanin (Hc) and 21 kD arcoplasmic calcium-binding protein(SCP) were the major allergens in shrimps.TM,AK and Hc were common major allergens among shrimps and crab and TM shared the highest reaction-rate.Compare to the results of some from American researchers , AK,Hc and SCP have higher reaction-rate when react with Chinese patients serum ,and we also found a new allergen in shrimp.Con-clusion:For Chinese patients , shrimps have higher reaction-rate than crabs and the allergens among shrimps and crabs which are roughly same.There are some differences in allergens among different human races.A new allergen with 48 kD was found in this re-search.
