There are two parameters for expressing histamine release results. (a) Cell sensitivity: concentration of allergen/antigen required to release 30–50% of total cellular histamine. (b) Cell reactivity: maximum amount of histamine release obtained with any amount of antigen. False-positive reactions may happen wherein the subjects have a negative skin test result and a positive histamine release test with an allergen. False-negative reactions may occur and is a more critical factor in interpreting HRTs.
