Abstract

The quality of extracts used in the skin prick test directly influences the interpretation of the test. Accordingly, the outcomes and effectiveness of immunotherapy for the management of IgE-mediated allergies depend on the quality of the extracts used. Excipients, which are pharmacologically inert ingredients, are intentionally added to the active ingredients. The aim of this study was to address optimum excipients for stability Platanus (P.) orientalis extract. In this study the excipients examined were l-lysine (20 mM), l-cysteine (20 mM), albumin (0.5%), sorbitol (2%), sucrose (750 mM), trehalose (20 mM), D-mannitol (2% w/v), urea (100 mM) and Tween-20 (0.1%). Their effects on P. orientalis extract stability were analyzed using an inhibition enzyme linked immune assay at 37 °C. A mixture of lysine (20 mM), trehalose (20 mM), and D-mannitol (2% w/v) conferred the greatest stability on the P. orientalis extract. The P. orientalis extract stability was increased by a mixture of lysine (20 mM), trehalose (20 mM), and D-mannitol.

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory genetically determined disease of the skin marked by increased ability to form reagin (IgE), with increased susceptibility to allergic rhinitis and asthma, and hereditary disposition to a lowered threshold for pruritus.
