“…monitoring at work are not possible and occupational asthma is strongly suspected from history, a combination of objective evidence of asthma plus a positive skin test or the verification of specific IgE by serological tests to the suspected agent has a high predictive value for occupational asthma 1391 (summarized in). Skin prick tests are often taken as the method of choice for the determination of sensitization in practice because results are available immediately and the procedure is cost effective.…”

Since the discovery of immunoglobulin E (IgE) as a mediator of allergic diseases in 1967, our knowledge about the immunological mechanisms of IgE‐mediated allergies has remarkably increased. In addition to understanding the immune response and clinical symptoms, allergy diagnosis and management depend strongly on the precise identification of the elicitors of the IgE‐mediated allergic reaction. In the past four decades, innovations in bioscience and technology have facilitated the identification and production of well‐defined, highly pure molecules for component‐resolved diagnosis (CRD), allowing a personalized diagnosis and management of the allergic disease for individual patients. The first edition of the “EAACI Molecular Allergology User's Guide” (MAUG) in 2016 rapidly became a key reference for clinicians, scientists, and interested readers with a background in allergology, immunology, biology, and medicine. Nevertheless, the field of molecular allergology is moving fast, and after 6 years, a new EAACI Taskforce was established to provide an updated document. The Molecular Allergology User's Guide 2.0 summarizes state‐of‐the‐art information on allergen molecules, their clinical relevance, and their application in diagnostic algorithms for clinical practice. It is designed for both, clinicians and scientists, guiding health care professionals through the overwhelming list of different allergen molecules available for testing. Further, it provides diagnostic algorithms on the clinical relevance of allergenic molecules and gives an overview of their biology, the basic mechanisms of test formats, and the application of tests to measure allergen exposure.

“…Both removal and reduction of exposure have been shown to improve outcomes among those with OA. However, the drawbacks of job loss should be weighed against the potential benefits of discontinuing exposure (19,165,166). Hence, in the present study, workers continued employment despite of health problems.…”

“…The gold standard for diagnosing OA in epidemiological studies is a bronchial challenge test preceded by a questionnaire and an allergy test (SPT or RAST). Often, serial PEF measurements at and away from work are almost as valuable (19). However, in the present study, it was not possible to perform bronchial challenge tests due to constraints in time.…”

“…Risk factors associated with the development of sensitisation and OA include atopy, smoking and possibly preexisting rhinitis (15,17,18). It has been demonstrated that OA and occupational rhinitis often appear in the same individuals (19) and a natural history of the development of OA has been described which includes the stages, occupational exposure leading to allergic sensitisation, rhinitis and OA (15). Often, a latency period of approximately two years exists from occupational exposure until OA develops, which makes it important to diagnose OA early in order to remove the allergen and prevent further aggravation of the disease (15).…”

“…However, a combination of objective evidence of asthma plus a positive SPT or the verification of specific IgE by serological tests to the suspected agent has a high predictive value for OA(19).Two different spirometers were used in the study. For data collection in 2016 and 2017, the MIR Spirobank II spirometer was used; for data collection in 2018, including follow-up data collection, the Easy-One® NDD Medical Technologies, Zurich, Switzerland was used.…”
