However, population is steadily growing and there is a rising need to provide adequate protein-based foods, including novel sources, not yet used for human consum...
متن کاملClinical impact of food processing
Food processing unit operations can have effects on food allergens and their capacity to provoke reactions. The vast majority of food allergens are proteins, although most individual proteins in foods do not possess allergenic activity. Thus, the physical removal of proteins e.g. oil refining can eliminate the allergenic activity as is well documented for highly refined peanut oil. Furthermore,...
