Zusammenfassung
Definition. Der Begriff Allergen wird für ein Antigen benutzt, das die Typ-I-Reaktion der Allergie hervorruft. Von der Immunbiochemie her betrachtet, bezieht sich der Begriff auf eine reine Verbindung, doch klinisch wird er häufig für eine Quelle allergener Moleküle, wie z. B. Pollen, Tierschuppen und Milben, verwendet. Die Extraktion dieses Materials in Wasser ergibt eine komplexe Molekülmischung, einen Allergenextrakt.
