%X The diagnosis of severe hazelnut allergy relies on skin prick tests (SPTs), specific
IgE assay and oral challenge. However, SPTs with crude hazelnut or commercial extracts
may produce false positives in people with benign, pollen-driven allergy. We therefore
studied the predictive value of a SPT based on grilled hazelnut, containing only thermostable
allergens.
