Of the 11 species of arboreal plants used for SPT, most of the study subjects tested positive to three pollen sources: Mangifera indica (MAN), Acacia auriculiformis (ACA), and Lantana camara (LAN) as shown in Table 2 . Skin prick tests (SPT), which is an essential procedure to confirm sensitization in IgE-mediated allergic disease in subjects with allergic rhinitis, asthma, and atopic dermatitis, can be performed from infancy to old age [24] . A high percentage of test subjects in this study reported a history of rhinitis and asthma, which, are allergic diseases often associated with sensitization to aeroallergens [46] . ./cache/cord-031567-w2676lrz.txt ./txt/cord-031567-w2676lrz.txt
