AB Anaphylaxis  is  an  acute,  potentially  life-threatening  systemic  allergic  reaction.  It  is  most  commonly  triggered  by  interaction  of  an  allergen  with  specific  IgE  antibody  bound  to  mast  cells  and  basophils  leading  to  cell  activation  and  mediator  release.  Non-IgE-mediated  direct  mast  cell  degranulation  results  in  mediator  release.
