The WHO/IUIS Allergen Nomenclature

Summary

The WHO/IUIS Allergen Nomenclature Sub‐Committee (http://www.allergen.org/), an international body of experts, has developed an allergen nomenclature system to provide a common language for unambiguous communications between researchers, clinicians, pharmaceutical companies and regulatory authorities regarding specific allergenic proteins. Official allergen names are only assigned by the WHO/IUIS Nomenclature Sub‐Committee once a new allergen has successfully undergone the submission and evaluation process. This article highlights the necessary steps to obtain an official allergen name and the high importance of having an official allergen nomenclature.
