Abstract
140 Bäcker mit arbeitsplatzbezogener Asthmasymptomatik und (oder) Rhinokonjunktivitis wurden auf spezifische IgE-Antikörper gegen verschiedene enzymhaltige Backmittel untersucht. 5-24 % dieser Probanden waren gegen die aus Schimmelpilzen gewonnenen kohlenhydratspaltenden Enzyme Amyloglucosidase, Hemicellulase und α-Amylase und (oder) gegen Sojamehl sensibilisiert. Dagegen waren Allergien gegen die proteolytischen Enzyme Papain und Bacillus-subtilis-Protease selten (etwa 1 %). Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß Backmittel, besonders Schimmelpilzenzyme, eine nicht zu vernachlässigende Rolle für die Entstehung des Bäckerasthmas spielen. 140 bakers with occupation-related asthma symptoms and/or rhinoconjunctivitis were tested for specific IgE antibodies against various enzyme-containing baking components. 5-24 % of subjects were sensitive to several carbohydrate-splitting enzymes obtained from mould fungi (amyloglucosidase, hemicellulase and α-amylase), as well as/or against soya flour. But allergies against the proteolytic enzymes papain and B. subtilis protease were rare (about 1 %). These results indicate that various baking components, especially mould enzymes, play a not insignificant role in the causation of baker's asthma.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
