A Brother's Grimm true story: the valiant little triple-quadrupole - 7 allergens in one blow
نویسنده
چکیده
The development of a multi-method for the detection of seven allergens based on liquid chromatography and triple-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry in multiple reaction mode is presented. It is based on extraction of the allergenic proteins from a food matrix, followed by enzymatic digestion with trypsin. The chosen marker peptides were implemented into one method that is capable of the simultaneous detection of milk, egg, soy, hazelnut, peanut, walnut and almond. This method has been used to detect all seven allergenic commodities from incurred reference bread material, which was baked according to a standard recipe from the baking industry. The presentation demonstrates the high potential of LC-MS/MS for allergens screening for the food industry.

متن کاملSimple methods to reduce major allergens Ara h 1 and Ana o 1/2 in peanut and cashew extracts
Whole peanut or cashew extracts are usually used in immunotherapy. Reducing major allergen(s) in the extracts may lessen their side effects. Three methods were evaluated to reduce major allergens in peanut extracts: (1) p-aminobenzamidine; (2) magnetic agarose beads; and (3) extraction of a commercial peanut flour at pH 7, respectively. The first two methods were also used to reduce major aller...
متن کاملConfirmation of peanut protein using peptide markers in dark chocolate using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
Detection of peptides from the peanut allergen Ara h 1 by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was used to identify and estimate total peanut protein levels in dark chocolate. A comparison of enzymatic digestion subsequent to and following extraction of Ara h 1 from the food matrix revealed better limits of detection (LOD) for the pre-extraction digestion (20 ppm) than for the postex...
