“…The report of Poothullil et al [9] in 1975 of a chronic hemodialysis patient having recurrent anaphylactic reac tions during dialysis and a positive allergy skin test to HSA-ETO was the first to suggest that allergy to ETO was responsible for dialyzer hypersensitivity reactions. Fur ther study of this patient by Dolovich and Bell [10] revealed persistently high levels of serum IgE antibodies to HSA-ETO as measured by a RAST as compared to the IgE levels in 6 normal subjects.…”

“…3 The results of prick tests with human serum albumin exposed to ethylene oxide were positive in this patient, and the ethylene oxide (or a product) was thought to be the cause of the allergic reactions. Subsequent studies on the same patient showed specific IgE antibodies to human serum albumin exposed to ethylene oxide; these were not detected in 25 patients undergoing dialysis without allergic reactions.…”

“…Poothuill y col. 40 han descrito una reacción de hipersensibilidad tipo I en un enfermo hemodializado, al que se le había conectado un shunt arterio-venoso esterilizado previamente con óxido de etileno. La positividad del test epitutáneo para una solución de óxido de etileno/albúmina sérica humana, la liberación de histamina a partir de leucocitos incubados en presencia del mismo complejo, y la detección de anticuerpos circulantes vis-a-vis de óxido de etileno 9 , han confirmado estas reacciones de carácter alérgico.…”
