Five human sera with reaginic activity to a number of allergens were fractionated using anion exchange chromatography. In each serum, fractions which contained detectable IgG and no detectable IgA had capacity to fix to skin and subsequently elicit a P-K reaction. Four of these sera had reaginic activity about equally distributed between fractions containing only IgG and fractions containing mixtures of IgG and IgA. A fifth serum contained reaginic activity to crystalline bovine serum albumin (BSA) and most of the activity was associated with the fraction which contained only IgG. This serum was extensively studied using a variety of techniques and it was confirmed that most of the reagin to BSA in this serum was in those fractions containing only IgG. Since reaginic activity can no longer be considered a unique property of IgA the implications of finding antibody with reaginic qualities in immunoglobulins other than IgA are discussed.

Allergy to bovine serum albumin is the main predictor of beef allergy associated with cow’s milk proteins allergy. We report a case of a 3-year-old child with cow’s milk proteins allergy since the age of 6 months who, after some ingestions of beef, developed episodes of irritability, urticaria and syncope. Specific IgE to beef, oral food challenge with medium rare cooked beef and specific IgE to bovine serum albumin were all positive, but an oral food challenge with well cooked beef was tolerated. Allergy to bovine serum albumin is not usually associated with severe reactions, since it is a thermolabile protein, however, the process of cooking meat may be insufficient to have an effect on the complex matrix of meat and associated serum albumins. The irregular pattern of the episodes and the previous diagnosis of cow’s milk proteins allergy may act as confounding factors leading to a delayed diagnosis.
