Category: Elisa Kits

An increase in sesame seed (Sesamum indicum) allergy in children and adults has been reported in recent years. A study investigating 4078 Australian children found the sensitisation rate to sesame seed to be one third that of the peanut sensitisation rate and higher than that of any tree nut. Similar results were found in a study from Israel. Another study in Israel found sesame to be a major cause of food allergy, second only to cow’s milk as a cause of anaphylaxis. A case of anaphylaxis has been reported after ingestion of meat and vegetables cooked in sesame seed oil.
