[edit] Cleanup

Someone has greatly expanded the article, but it is now almost exclusively about allergy. Scientific articles in this field should really follow the form (1) Physiology (normal function), (2) Genetics/molecular biology (ultrastructure and DNA), (3) Role in disease (allergy, in this case), (4) Therapeutic role (e.g. cromoglycate or omalizumab).

In its present form, the article is off-balance. Could the new contributor kindly do some tidying up and avoid speculation as much as possible? JFW | T@lk 21:26, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

I've tried to reword it so the article is more centred on IgE rather than drifting into slightly irrelevent stuff. Obviously IgE and allergy are intimately connected topics, but hopefully this is an acceptable improvement?

AIT


The article continues to contain highly biased and incomplete information. Unfortunately I have only the knowledge to recognize this, and do not feel I have the knowledge to correct it. I suggest the reader take this article with a grain of salt and consider alternate sources such as MedLine.
