Crustaceans and shellfish allergy is estimated to affect 0.8% of children under 18 years of age and 1.6% of adults.<\/li><li>Crustacean and mollusc allergies predominantly affect adults and are less common among children.<\/li><li>Allergy to fish, crustaceans, and shellfish generally persists throughout life.<\/li><li>The term seafood refers to crustaceans and molluscs. Crustaceans have a rigid shell, while molluscs have a two-part shell. Lobster, shrimp, and crab are classified as crustaceans; while scallops, mussels and oysters as molluscs.<\/li><li>A person might be allergic to one or more species of fish, crustaceans and\/or molluscs.<\/li><li>The risk of contamination between fish, crustaceans and molluscs is very high, especially in fish markets and grocery stores. If you are allergic to fish or seafood, it is better to avoid these points of sale and choose packaged products.<\/li><li>Imitation seafood (e. g. simulated crab) may contain fish and should be avoided.<\/li><li>Allergenic proteins from fish and seafood can be found in cooking fumes (e.g., steam from lobster cooking water, fish cooking in a pan). The simple inhalation of allergenic proteins can cause allergic reactions to people with highly sensitive allergies, even without consumption of the allergen [3].<\/li><li><strong>Allergy or food poisoning?<\/strong> Signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction to fish are sometimes confused with scombroidosis, a food poisoning to histamine. The symptoms of scombroidosis (burning sensation in the throat, facial swelling, itching, rashes, and abdominal pain) are similar to those of anaphylaxis [4]. Scombroidosis cases are most often associated with the consumption of tuna, bonito, and mackerel due to the high amount of histamine found in their flesh when not fresh. It is the decomposition of the fish that allows for the formation of histamine. However, this decomposition is difficult to detect, because it often occurs before a foul-smelling odour is released from the fish.<\/li><\/ul><div id=\"2\"><h2>Fish, crustaceans and molluscs &#8211; REFERENCE GUIDE<\/h2><\/div><div id=\"2\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/allergies-alimentaires.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/24_allergies-quebec_aide-memoire_poissons-crustaces-mollusques.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fish, crustaceans and molluscs REFERENCE GUIDE<\/a><\/span>, PDF format (0,5 Mo) (in French)<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><table style=\"width: 100%;\" border=\"1\"><tbody><tr><td style=\"background-color: #efefef;\" colspan=\"4\" rowspan=\"1\"><center><strong>Terms that may indicate the presence of <\/strong>:<\/center><\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"width: 25%;\" colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"23\"><center><strong>Fish (non-exhaustive list)<\/strong><\/center><\/td><td style=\"width: 25%;\">Anchovies<\/td><td style=\"width: 25%;\">Anchovy paste<\/td><td style=\"width: 25%;\">Anglerfish<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bass<\/td><td>Yellow tuna<\/td><td>Bonito<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bremen<\/td><td>Capelin<\/td><td>Carpus<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Catfish<\/td><td>Caviar<\/td><td>Channel catfish<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Chevaine<\/td><td>Cisco<\/td><td>Cod<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Conger<\/td><td>Eel<\/td><td>Fish<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fish broth and sauce<\/td><td>Golden<\/td><td>Grondin<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Grouper<\/td><td>Haddock<\/td><td>Hake<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Halibut<\/td><td>Herring<\/td><td>Kamaboko<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Lamprey<\/td><td>Mackerel<\/td><td>Mahi-mahi<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Marlin<\/td><td>Monkfish<\/td><td>Mule<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Nuoc Mam<\/td><td>Orange roughy<\/td><td>Perch<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Pike<\/td><td>Plaice<\/td><td>Pollock<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Pompano<\/td><td>Red mullet<\/td><td>Redfish<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Saint-Pierre<\/td><td>Salmon<\/td><td>Sardine<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sea bream<\/td><td>Sea toad<\/td><td>Shad<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shade<\/td><td>Shark<\/td><td>Smelt<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Snape<\/td><td>Snapper<\/td><td>Sole<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sparidae<\/td><td>Stingray<\/td><td>Sturgeon<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Surimi<\/td><td>Sushi<\/td><td>Swordfish<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tarama (mullet-based recipe)<\/td><td>Tassergal<\/td><td>Tilapia<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Trout<\/td><td>Tuna<\/td><td>Turbot<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Whiting<\/td><td>Yellow Perch<\/td><td>Yellowtail flounder<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"width: 25%;\" colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"4\"><center><strong>Crustaceans (non-exhaustive list)<\/strong><\/center><\/td><td>Camaron<\/td><td>Coral<\/td><td>Crab<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Crayfish<\/td><td>Gambas<\/td><td>Krill<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Lobster<\/td><td>Nephrops<\/td><td>Scampi<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shrimps and prawns<\/td><td>Spiny lobster<\/td><td>Tomalli<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"width: 25%;\" colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"6\"><center><strong>Molluscs (non-exhaustive list)<\/strong><\/center><\/td><td>Abalone<\/td><td>Clam<\/td><td>Cuttlefish<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Hull<\/td><td>Moulds<\/td><td>Mules<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Octopus<\/td><td>Whelk<\/td><td>Oyster<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Oyster sauce<\/td><td>Periwinkle<\/td><td>Scallop<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sea urchin<\/td><td>Snail<\/td><td>Solen<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Squid<\/td><td>St James Shell<\/td><td>\u00a0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td colspan=\"4\" rowspan=\"1\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/health-canada\/services\/food-nutrition\/food-labelling\/allergen-labelling.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Health Canada\u2019s food allergen labelling regulations<\/a> established in 2012 prohibit use of the following terms.
