salix discolor pollen

Salix discolor pollen is a biological allergen extract derived from the pollen of the American pussy willow (*Salix discolor*). It is primarily utilized as a diagnostic tool in allergy testing, specifically for identifying allergic sensitization through skin prick tests or other diagnostic procedures. The extract contains specific allergenic proteins that trigger a localized immune response in sensitized individuals, allowing clinicians to confirm hypersensitivity to willow pollen, which typically occurs in early spring. As a biologic product, it is manufactured by various specialized allergen extract companies for clinical use in immunology and allergy clinics.
