Abstract

A method for determining allergenic sensitivity of a mammal is disclosed. The method involves measuring the time required for hemostasis of a blood sample with an allergen in the presence of a blood clotting inhibitor and comparing the time required for hemostasis in the presence of a blood clotting inhibitor and the absence of the allergen. The sensitivity to the allergen is determined by determining the difference in time required for hemostasis.
