FALCPA does not require that major allergens be listed in boldface type, although some companies choose to do so. 3. Rework generally occurs at manufacturing facilities. Rework is when a food item, due to some factor in the manufacturing sequence, is reprocessed. For example, in the event of...
which is why they are being used not only as ingredient to foods but as food themselves [209,210,211]. Lupine seeds or the respective flour are used as nutritional substitute for people with allergies or intolerances to wheat, milk, eggs, and gluten [212]. Lupine allergy has first been d...
Organizations have created a decision process that has generally been successful in avoiding development of products that cause allergic reactions. Since some proteins expressed do not have any history of human exposure, risk evaluation may be more of a challenge for them. Biotechnology has also been...
32, 33 Interestingly, this sensitivity appears to relate primarily to exposure to a cat at home, but is not generally associated with asthma. The next syndrome also includes sensitivity to cat proteins, but in this case the relevant protein is cat IgA and the epitope is the oligosaccharide ...
In cleaning production equipment in between making the different types of foods. Traces of previously produced foods such as nuts can remain on the equipment. The first batches of foods made without nuts that go through the same equipment will likely contain traces of nuts. Foods that may cause...
In contrast, intake of a high LPS level induces a TH1 response1,2, which corresponds well with the hygiene theory3. LPS is generally present at levels insufficient to stimulate macrophages in the absence of the accessory molecule, known as lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP). Thus, LBP is...

The analytical tool generally used to track the digestion of substrate protein in SGF is sodium dodecyl polyacrylimide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). SDS-PAGE separates denatured proteins on polyacrylamide gels based primarily on molecular mass, and thus does not distinguish enzyme-bound from non-bo...
in infants and children and is suitable for the treatment of CMA. It is unclear what the true prevalence of almond and buckwheat allergies is, if an early introduction of almond and buckwheat may increase the risk of developing allergies to these foods or decrease this risk, and if early ...
This efficacy has been proven in controlled studies in asthma and allergic rhinitis caused by mites, pollens and some fungi and animal epithelia [140]. However, the administration of allergenic extracts, whether subcutaneously or sublingually, is not exempt from risk. Generally, the most frequent ...
