Baker's asthma due to the enzyme xylanase -- a new occupational allergen.

X Baur1, I Sander, A Posch, M Raulf-Heimsoth.   

Abstract

The asthmatic baker showed IgE-mediated sensitization to xylanase of Aspergillus niger used as a baking additive. Inhalative challenge with approximately 0.5 microg of the enzyme resulted in an immediate-type asthmatic reaction. This case, as well as a preliminary screening of symptomatic bakers, shows that xylanase is a further relevant type I-sensitizer in the baking industry.
