Adverse reaction to food screening test: new multiparametric ELISA kit for patients with gastrointestinal symptomatology linked to ingesting food
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background An adverse reaction to food is a general term describing clinically abnormal responses to an ingested food that might occur secondary to non-allergic food hypersensitivity (food intolerance) or allergic food hypersensitivity (food allergy). It is well known that almost 1 person in 4 suffers from an intestinal complaint, due to this fact different kits have been put on the market, generally with no scientific validity and inadequate diagnostic effect. This test is an enzyme immunoassay screening kit for single patients who present symptoms in the gastrointestinal tract. This is an initial screening test that should facilitate the diagnosis of adverse reactions to food (food allergy, food intolerance and celiac disease), or at least the exclusion of these possibilities.

Recent cases of adulteration with melamine have led to the need for rapid and reliable screening methods. To meet this need, commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test kits for the detection of triazines were evaluated. The recently released Melamine Plate kit (Abraxis, Warminster, Pa.) displayed a limit of detection of 9 ng/ml for melamine in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and ...
متن کاملFood Allergy in Adults
The knowledge on adverse reactions to foods and the spectrum of food-related gastrointestinal symptoms in relation to allergy in adults is still scarce. The conventional allergy tests do not always offer with precision an accurate diagnosis in case of suspicious food allergy and therefore patients often need to be investigated further with oral food challenge or even intestinal biopsy. Adult pa...
