Immunoglobulin E‐mediated food allergy diagnosis and differential diagnosis

Food allergies consist of aberrant immunologic, typically immunoglobulin E mediated, reactions that involve food proteins. A clinical history with regard to the suspected food, temporal associations, the duration of symptoms, characteristic symptom complex, and reproducibility in some
 cases is the key to making an accurate diagnosis. The differential diagnosis includes, for example, other immunologic adverse food reactions, nonimmunologic adverse food reactions, and reactions that involve nonfood items. Skin and blood immunoglobulin E testing for the suspected food antigen
 can aid the diagnosis in the context of a supportive clinical history. Immunoglobulin E testing for food components may further enhance diagnostic accuracy. Novel testing modalities are under development but are not yet ready to replace the current paradigm. Thus, double-blinded placebo controlled
 oral food challenge is considered the criterion standard of testing, although unblinded oral food challenges are usually confirmatory.
