Stinging Insect Allergy Biospecimens are critical for understanding and managing the severe reactions some individuals experience due to insect venom allergies. When a person with an insect venom allergy is stung, their immune system can overreact, producing antibodies that trigger hypersensitivity.

While the initial response to a sting might include redness, itching, pain, and warmth at the site, these symptoms can quickly escalate in allergic individuals, leading to anaphylaxis—a life-threatening condition that can result in death if not treated promptly. Therefore, preventing insect stings, ensuring timely diagnosis with accurate insect identification, and administering effective treatment to suppress the immune response are crucial steps in managing insect allergies.

What is a stinging insect allergy?

It is an acute allergic response to the bite of the stinging insect. Upon exposure to the insect venom or its components, the body's immune system reacts by producing IgE antibodies.

What happens to affected persons after an insect bite?

An allergic person to insect venom can develop acute and chronic reactions after an insect bite. Generally, the patient experiences localised swelling, warmth, itching and redness at the sting site. In severe conditions, the patient develops systemic reactions causing hives, inflammation of airways, mouth, tongue, breathing difficulty, and loss of consciousness, leading to anaphylaxis and death.

Is an insect bite allergy treatable?

Prompt diagnosis with identification of causative insect and timely initiation of treatment can reduce the risk of developing severe reactions. Minor allergic responses can be treated with antihistamine tablets and corticosteroids. In case of a severe systemic reaction, parenteral administration of adrenalin, corticosteroids and specific antidote or immunotherapy is warranted with effective supportive care.

Who are at risk of insect stinging allergy?

About 2% of the population react to insect bites with symptoms that extend beyond the bite site. People who are frequently stung are more likely to develop allergies. This includes people who work in bakeries, beekeepers, fruit sellers, farmers, and horticulturists. Besides, people with a history of allergy and old age people with breathing problems can develop insect allergies.

What are stinging insect allergy samples?

Stinging insect allergy samples are human and plasma samples isolated from consented donors diagnosed with insect venom allergy. The samples are well annotated and screened for specific insect antigen-antibody testing and available with a complete clinical profile.
