Measurement of IgE antibodies to shrimp tropomyosin is superior to skin prick testing with commercial extract and measurement of IgE to shrimp for predicting clinically relevant allergic reactions after shrimp ingestion. J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2010;125(4):872-8. This study showed that use of measurements of IgE to shrimp tropomyosin adds value to the diagnosis of shrimp allergy. This is important for the diagnosis of shellfish allergy in the arthropod-allergic population with a positive SPT to shrimp..
