Allergen specific IgG3/5 and IgG5 responses against deglycosylated Cul o 3 and Cul o 2. IgG3/5 and IgG5 antibodies were measured using a Culicoides allergen multiplex assays. Longitudinal data representing (a) Cul o 3 specific IgG3/5 antibodies and (b) Cul o 2 specific IgG5 antibodies in serum of allergic (n = 9) and non-allergic (n = 7) horses during the two-year study period. The arrow shows the time of import of the horses to the US. The areas within the dotted lines indicate times of natural exposure to Culicoides midges. MFI = median fluorescence intensity
