Figure 3From: Basophil activation test compared to skin prick test and fluorescence enzyme immunoassay for aeroallergen-specific Immunoglobulin-EReceiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves used for the determining the cutoffs for positive BAT results. Sensitivity and Specificity of BAT was calculated using different cutoffs (10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% above background) for positivity. The cutoffs at which sensitivity of BAT was similar to FEIA were selected. Selected cutoff value included 15% above background for Cat and Timothy, 25% for DP and 30% for Dog and Birch.Back to article page
