摘要：

This paper serves to evaluate objective immunological tests to predict penicillin allergy. Prospective immediate skin and serum tests were performed on a total of 218 patients with past histories of penicillin allergy who had major medical indication for penicillin and who were then treated with penicillin depending upon the test results. Skin tests were found to be valuable predictive tests for immediate (including anaphylactic) and accelerated urticarial allergic reactions to penicillin. The clinical value of these tests is discussed, as well as the possible meaning of the data obtained with regard to the immune mechanisms of various allergic reactions to penicillin. © 1969.
