Abstract
Allergy to cow’s milk proteins is the most common cause of allergic reactions in young children, with a significant impact on the quality of life of children and their families. The most significant biomarker of herbivore milk allergy is allergen-specific IgE (sIgE), which can be assessed both for the whole allergen (for example, cow’s milk (CM), mare’s milk, goat’s milk, etc.) and a specific molecule, included in their composition. This article focuses on the use of sIgE in infants with suspected cow’s milk protein allergy.
