Subjects which had increased values of IgE, had been tested for fecal parasites . Subjects wich was positiv for scin allergens was tested for specific IgE on Hytec 288 instrument with ELISA metod. Results: Folowing resaults was obtained: 57.14% (20) of subjects had increased values of total IgE, while 42.86% (15) had normal total IgE. All patients with increased values of total IgE were tested negative for fecal parazites. Percent conform Prick tests and specific IgE was for house dust 54.55%, ragweed 53.85%, grass pollen 45.45%, Dermato-phagoides Pteronyssinus 43.75%, Pollen trees 25.00%.
