Polypeptides useful for diagnosis of Aspergillus fumigatus and a process of preparing the same

The present invention relates to novel peptide sequences from the immunodominant region of an 18 kD major allergen/antigen of Aspergillus fumigatus from aa 6-22, comprising aa 10-20, aa 6-20, aa 14-20, aa 10-22, aa 6-13 and the peptide sequence resulting from the modification by substitution and/or by addition and/or deletion of one or more amino acid altering specified properties.
