| Abstract: | Food allergy is an increasingly common and potentially serious chronic medical condition affecting up to 10% of Melbourne infants [1]. The tools that currently exist to confirm the diagnosis of food allergy are crude and frequently overcall allergy. Component resolved diagnostics is increasingly used in food allergy diagnosis [2]. Further research is still required to understand the mechanisms of childhood and adolescent food allergy. There also needs to be further studies into diagnostic tools and optimization of recognising tolerance. |
