Background: Allergy to peanuts and tree nuts is a common cause of food allergy in Spain, with lipid transfer proteins (LTP) being the most frequently recognized panallergen. LTP sensitization often leads to multiple food group sensitivities, resulting in overly restrictive diets that hinder patient's quality of life. This study aimed to assess the tolerance of peanuts and tree nuts (hazelnuts and walnuts) in children sensitized to LTP, potentially mitigating the need for such diets.

Article Synopsis
  • - This mini-review highlights recent advancements in using polar-block organometallic reagents (like RLi, RNa, and RMgX) for organic synthesis under less controlled conditions, specifically at room temperature and in the presence of air and moisture.
  • - The research demonstrates that traditional reactions can be successfully conducted using non-toxic and sustainable solvents, even water, leading to improved reaction efficiency and selectivity compared to conventional methods that require low temperatures and inert atmospheres.
  • - The findings contribute to more sustainable organic synthesis practices by utilizing environmentally friendly solvents, thus supporting broader goals of sustainability in chemical processes.
