In this study, basophil activation test (BAT) established by the investigators' lab was evaluated for its sensitivity and specificity in child egg allergy diagnosis. Children with suspected IgE mediated allergy to egg will be recruited in the study. Specific IgE to egg allergen and BAT will be detected. The diagnostic accuracy of the BAT will be assessed against clinical diagnosis based on history, clinical symptoms and laboratory results.
