Objective: To explore the relationships between the allergy to milk proteins and infants with diarrhea diseases, determine the clinical value of Serum lgG activity toβ-lactoglobulin.

Methods:  The Serum lgG activity to β-lactoglobulin were measured by enzyme-linked  immunosorbent assay(ELISA) in 96 infants with virus diarrhea(32cases), with dietary diarrhea(32cases) and with symptomatic diarrhea(32cases), then evaluated and analysised.

Results: The positives of Serum lgG activity toβ-lactoglobulin in group of dietary diarrhea were significantly higher than the group of symptomatic diarrhea (0.05 >P>0.01). The average levels of Serum lgG toβ-lactoglobulin in group of dietary diarrhea were also higher than both the group of symptomatic diarrhea and virus diarrhea (P<0.01).

Conclusion: This study has confirmed that the measurement of Serum lgG activity toβ-lactoglobulin might be an important precondition for the dietary diarrhea disease patients, and we must prize the sensitive factors of cow's milk proteins.
