IgE reactivity to cod crude extracts in atopic dogs. Based on the levels of specific IgE to crude cod extracts in 20 negative controls, the cutoff value (mean + 3 standard deviation (SD)) was 638 fluorescence units (FU), as indicated by the dotted line. The mean FU ± SD value of IgE reactivity to crude cod extracts in 179 atopic dogs was 457 ± 61 FU. Thirty-six atopic dogs exhibited specific IgE reactivity to crude cod meat, with IgE levels ranging from 640 to 3483 FU. The blue circle indicates IgE reactivity in dog no. 34. The red circle indicates IgE reactivity in dog no. 128. The gray circles indicate IgE reactivity in other dogs with cod allergy. IgE, immunoglobulin E
