Abstract

Clinical Implications
High-dose supplemental biotin can ablate allergen-specific IgE detection in sera from patients with a history of allergy or anaphylaxis on the one-step IMMULITE-2000 autoanalyzer.
Thus, clinicians relying on this immunoassay should inquire about biotin intake with patients during the visit.
