A multicentre trial of Capture Assay Radim Liquid Allergen was performed to define the sensitivity, specificity and clinical reliability of the system in diagnostic allergology. The results of the evaluation were compared with clinical data and in vivo testing. Good agreement was obtained for Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (D1), Cat's epithelium (E1), Betula verrucosa (T3) and Olea europea (T9), Artemisia vulgaris (W6) and Parietaria officinalis (W19). Some spreading of data was observed for Artemisia absinthium (W5), Cynodon dactylon (G2), and Lolium perenne (G5). We found a high number of negative cases for Alternaria alternata (M6). The advantages offered by the system are the automation, the small quantity of serum requested, the supply of quantitative results in international units of specific IgE, the user-friendly software. The data are sufficiently reliable for the diagnostic system to be introduced into the clinical laboratory allergological routine.
