If you do not apprehend what causes your allergies or bronchial asthma to flare, however are you able to avoid more contact together with your specific irritant?
Allergy is the reaction reflected onto one’s body due to a foreign substance. Allergies in the body can be caused due to foods, drugs and inhalants. Testing for allergy is the most effective way to diagnose and manage the allergens that can lead to severe complications in future. To know more about the diagnosis and management of different kinds of allergies, you can visit an allergy test lab in Ahmedabad.
Skin prick testing of pediatric allergies copy.pptxdrgsvt
Skin prickly test is the most useful, easiest and affordable investigation to identify the suspected allergen as to the cause of sensitisation … it will detect bound IgE … it is preferred to immunocap assay test…
It’s hard to believe that things as unrelated as pollen, animal dander, bee venom, foods and mold can all potentially lead to the same type of problem. What these substances have in common is that they are proteins and are among the most common allergens. They can cause severe allergic reactions in some people.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Allergy Testing By Skin Prick
1. Allergy Testing By Skin Prick - Simple, Painless - Quick Results
Allergy testing has been progressing for over 100 years. Doctors and scientists have
a difficult job looking to find the root causes of those symptoms such as running nose
and streaming eyes, among several others. One third of Britons (around 19 million
people) develop allergy symptoms, and are looking for effective answers through
allergy testing.
Treatments and vaccines for hay fever, asthma and food allergies have failed to live
up to expectation despite the huge amount of money we spend on them, and
sufferers are left wondering where all the money pumped into research over decades
has gone.
A high percentage of doctors and researchers are baffled at certain causes of allergies
in many patients. Some people do react to certain events that trigger a group of
reactions in their system, while the exact same events might not have any effect on
others whatsoever. The difficulty in pinpointing the exact reason why someone is
allergic to a particular food, insect or even house is a very complicated situation.
Many doctors advise that 'blood allergy testing' has to be employed to find out which
allergy you suffer from, which takes longer than skin prick tests - but is extremely
accurate. With the sheer amount of complex allergies in society today, it is a difficult
and slow process finding out their source. Those who suffer allergies may have to wait
a few decades for allergists to come up with answers.
There are several methods of allergy testing that are effective, quick, and cheap, but
don't expect any miracle cure - as you will only be given advice on altering your
lifestyle. These tests look for 'Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies' in the human
system for allergens like pollen, common dust mites, indoor pollutants and pet dander.
Variations of these tests like skin prick food intolerance testing are used to examine
the complex subject of food allergies. Food allergy testing kits are said to be very
accurate in their results, but it's surely better to seek advice from a doctor before you
purchase one these kits.
Finding allergy testing centres in your area is straight forward. You can ask your own
doctor or practice nurse if you are registered with a GP. A health visitor or school
nurse can give you good advice about testing and effective Allergy Relief, or even your
local family health service authority where you live. Failing that, just pop down to your
local hospital reception or speak to a pharmacist.
2. Allergy testing kits are available to buy in chemists and on the web that will give
you your results in a short period of time. Basic skin prick testing is painless and it's
usually the first test advised by specialists when allergy symptoms are present. Taking
antihistamines and various other medications like inhalers are prohibited for up to 1
week before the skin testing start day.
A very small droplet of allergen is placed on the skin inner forearm. Up to 30 allergens
can be tested on the one arm, which is marked in various areas so the tester knows
which allergen those results will come from. Using a specially designed very sharp
lancet, the skin is lightly pierced at an angle of 90 degrees directly on top of the
allergen drop. Simple, painless and quick diagnosis.
The main advantage of this type of testing is that results normally takes up to 25
minutes. A visible raised wheal and red flare activity on the skin means that the tester
can effectively eliminate a realistic cause for allergic symptoms, or diagnose you as
positive for an allergy.
Allergy Patch Testing
Another relatively easy way to test for allergies is 'patch testing', which is carried out
to determine whether allergies are present through dermatitis (Eczema). Tiny droplets
of allergen are spread in a 'Vaseline mixture' which is applied to small metallic discs.
These discs are usually taped on the patients back area, and left there for a few days.
The patient comes back to the specialist after 2 days for removal and inspection in
case of swelling and redness.
After another 2 days, the back is thoroughly scanned for signs of skin reaction to the
small amounts of allergens that were applied there earlier. 'Atopy Patch Tests' (APT)
on the skin can also be implemented to find out if reactions to foods are present. They
are usually used to identify other allergens such as metals, rubber/latex and certain
beauty cosmetics. Please note there are several more allergy testing methods
available today.
