Poultry
Poultry (e.g., chicken) allergy involves IgE reactions to muscle proteins (e.g., serum albumin, ovomucoid in trace residues). Symptoms include urticaria, asthma, or anaphylaxis. Rare but documented; cross-reactivity with eggs (Bird-Egg Syndrome) occurs in ~20% of cases. Cooking may reduce but not eliminate allergenicity.
