Hunting Hidden Allergens in Food: Extraction and Immunochemical Detection of Peanut and Milk Proteins

This study assesses immunochemical methods, notably ELISA, for extracting and detecting masked peanut and milk allergens in complex food matrices, and proposes improved extraction protocols and a novel ELISA for specific detection of goat and sheep milk proteins in bovine dairy products.

Detail beschrijving

Masked allergens in processed foods pose serious risks to sensitized individuals. This paper evaluates various protein extraction protocols and ELISA-based immunochemical assays for the detection of peanut and milk proteins in complex food matrices, highlighting how matrix composition and extraction conditions influence allergen recovery. New extraction approaches and refined ELISA reagents are proposed to enhance peanut detection. Additionally, an original ELISA was developed to specifically identify caprine and ovine milk proteins without cross-reactivity to cow’s milk, offering improved management of goat’s and sheep’s milk allergy in patients tolerant to cow’s milk.
