Abstract
Abstract The genus Fusarium can occasionally cause inhalant allergic symptoms but, as an allergen, it seems to be largely uninvestigated. Fusarium graminearum can be grown to produce a mycoprotein which provides a high quality protein food. Skin prick tests in some patients who were clinically allergic to Alternaria gave immediate positive responses to Fusarium and the mycoprotein. It remains to be tested whether in man mycoprotein as a food will produce allergic symptoms.
