Among the 200 participants who were recruited for the MONAS study (150 Toronto, 50 Vienna), 3 did not meet inclusion criteria and 15 did not have their blood drawn. Of the 182 available samples, BAT data could not be obtained from 23 participants due to several factors including technical issues (n=1), high background activity (n=10), non-responder basophils (n=7) and low cell count (n=5). BATs were performed on a total of 159 samples for the tested nuts: peanut (n=143), hazelnut (n=117), walnut (n=114), cashew (n=117), pistachio (n=110), and almond (n=121). BAT measurements from these 159 samples were used for subsequent data analysis.
