Anticorps sérique, appartenant aux immunoglobulines E(IgE), apparaissant chez des sujets sensibilisés par un premier contact avec un antigène. Il va se fixer sur certaines cellules, surtout sur les mastocytes et les polynucléaires basophiles, où sa rencontre ultérieure avec le même antigène provoquera la libération de médiateurs chimiques (histamine, sérotonine, kinine, héparine) et l'apparition de manifestations d'hypersensibilité immédiate.
