- the present invention further relates to a tester composition for determining the presence or absence of an antigen containing the polypeptide in an object.
- IgE antibodies specific for specific antigens are produced in the serum and tissues of allergic patients. Allergic reactions are triggered by the physiological results produced by the interaction of this IgE antibody with a specific antigen.
- antigen refers to foods / foods that cause allergic symptoms in a broad sense, and refers to proteins (hereinafter also referred to as allergen components) contained in foods / foods to which specific IgE antibodies bind in a narrow sense.
- allergen reagents are often prepared simply by grinding foods / food ingredients, etc., of allergen candidates (Patent Document 1). For this reason, a positive reaction in an allergy test is detected only when the content of the allergen components contained in a conventional antigen reagent exceeds the threshold that allows a positive reaction to be determined for binding to an IgE antibody. The diagnostic efficiency was not high enough.
- allergen candidate foods and ingredients some allergen components are suggested and commercialized as test kits.
- test kits In order to increase the reliability of the allergy test, it is necessary to comprehensively identify allergen components, but the patient detection rate by measuring the allergen components is still insufficient. Identification of new shrimp allergens is not only important for improving the accuracy of diagnostics, but also very important as a target for low-allergen foods, low-allergen foods and therapeutics.
- the allergen-specific IgE antibody recognizes and binds to an epitope that is a specific amino acid sequence in the allergen component.
- Non-Patent Document 1 Non-Patent Document 1
- allergen components have been analyzed up to the epitope
- allergy diagnostic kit using a polypeptide containing an epitope on the market at present there is no allergy diagnostic kit using a polypeptide containing an epitope on the market at present.

- allergy refers to a state in which a hypersensitivity reaction unfavorable to the living body, which occurs when the antigen enters the living body sensitized to a certain antigen again.
- Allergic reactions can occur when in contact with an antigen or when ingested.
- contact refers to touching an object, and particularly refers to adhesion to the skin, mucous membranes (eye, lips, etc.) and the like for the human body.
- Ingestion means taking into the body, and taking by inhalation or oral means.
- an allergic reaction that occurs when food is ingested is called food allergy.
- the allergy may be a food allergy.
- IgE antibodies specific for antigens are produced in blood and tissues.
- IgE antibodies bind to mast cells or basophils.
- the antigen specific to the IgE antibody enters the body of the allergic disease patient again, the antigen combines with the IgE antibody bound to mast cells or basophils, resulting in the physiological effect of the IgE antibody-antigen interaction.
- physiological effects include the release of histamine, serotonin, heparin, eosinophil migration factor or various leukotrienes.
- These released substances elicit allergic reactions caused by the combination of IgE antibodies and specific antigens.
