Scope: Factors such as food processing, the food matrix, and antacid medication may affect the bio-accessibility of proteins in the gastrointestinal tract and hence their allergenic activity. However, at present they are poorly understood.
Methods And Results: Roasted peanut flour was incorporated into either a chocolate dessert or cookie matrix and bio-accessibility were assessed using an in vitro digestion system comprising a model chew and simulated gastric and duodenal digestion.
