Özet

In horses, allergic disease has been implicated in the pathophysiology of atopic dermatitis, recurrent urticaria, and recurrent airway obstruction. With the present study, it is aimed to give information about allergens which determined in Thoroughbred stallions with detecting serum IgE. 18 Thoroughbred stallions averaged 11 years old were included in the study. Fifteen single and five mix allergens were checked for allergen-specific IgE. English plantain (Plantago lanceolata), Birch/Alder/Hazel and Micropolyspora faeni/Thermoactinomyces were detected as quite allergic to six Thoroughbred stallions at total. Consequently, assays detect equine IgE, can be an effortless method in determining allergens in horses.
