... (reaction) or negative (tolerance) outcomes. Initial factors recorded included sex, age, history of asthma, eczema, allergic rhinitis, prior epinephrine use for cow’s milk-induced reactions, skin prick test size, serum levels of immunoglobulin E antibodies to α-lactalbumin, β-lactoglobulin, and casein...

... was performed. Fifty-four CMA patients were enrolled and oral food challenge (OFC) was performed with baked product, 6 different milk SPTs and specific IgEs to CM, casein, α-lactalbumin, and β-lactoglobulin. Results: Thirty-nine (72.2%) patients tolerated OFC with baked milk cupcake. CM-specific IgE and casein...

...Hiroshi Iwamoto; Takeshi Matsubara; Tomoyuki Okamoto; Takuya Matsumoto; Mayu Yoshikawa; Yasuhiro Takeda Background: Casein is the most dominant causal allergen in cow’s milk allergy (CMA). Casein hydrolysates are frequently applied in infant formulas for children with a risk or history of CMA...

... represented 91.2% of the study group and 39% of them suffered from the first symptoms during or soon after a pregnancy. So far, 47% of the patients were nonatopic and showed a monovalent sensitization to cow milk proteins. According to RAST results (score ≥ 2) the predominant allergen was casein...

...Bastiaan Schouten; Betty C.A.M. van Esch; Gerard A. Hofman; Lieke W.J. van den Elsen; Linette E.M. Willemsen; Johan Garssen Background: Cow’s milk allergy (CMA) is characterized by hypersensitivity against casein or whey, affecting 2.5% of young infants. The pathogenesis of CMA involves IgE as well...

...–PAGE and immunoblot assay). All of them had previously proven serum antibodies against casein and gliadin. In the procedure, antigliadin–antibodies were removed from sera by adsorption with gliadin. Adsorbed antibodies were then eluted from the adsorbent. Results: Adsorbed samples retained anticasein...

...Hervé Bernard; Christophe Créminon; Mireille Yvon; Jean-Michel Wal Background: Cow’s milk is one of the most frequent food allergens. Whole casein appears to be highly allergenic. It corresponds to an association of four different proteins, α s1 -, α s2 -, β- and *-caseins in approximate...
