Hornet, i75

The European hornet (Vespa crabro) is a large vespid wasp found in most of Europe and Asia. He injects poison for self-defense and to capture prey with a stinging device.
To date, three allergenic molecules have been characterized in V. crabro venom, which to some extent cross-react with homologous proteins in the venom of other hymenopteran insects, such as the yellow vest (Vespula spp.) and the honey bee (Apis mellifera).

The determination of specific IgE in human blood to - Hornet, i75, shows the body's reaction to this allergen.
