Inhalation of aerosolized ovalbumin will cause both these reactions to
occur in animals such as rats, mice and guinea-pigs which have
previously been sensitized by intraperitoneal or intradermal
injections of ovalbumin.
For example:

asthmatic model induced by aerosolized ovalbumin inhalation in guinea
pigs.

"To establish an animal model of asthma, fully sensitized guinea pigs
inhaled aerosolized ovalbumin after booster treatments... From 1 to 6
hours after provocation, anaphylactic changes such as perivascular
edema and bronchoconstriction were detected. After that, intensive
infiltration of eosinophils appeared and lasted until 48 hours after
provocation. "
Search strategy: I was already familiar with ovalbumin-based asthma
models, so I searched on the terms: ovalbumin, asthma,
bronchoconstriction, infiltration |
