Background evidence
There is no consensus as to the most accurate testing technique, which display significant variability and in some cases poor reliabilityVaried testing techniques and immunotherapy protocols produce similar resultsStudies support the role of non-specific tolerance in humansA double-blinded study found that stock mixture IT produced the same benefit as customized ITSlide3
