Preparation and immunological characterization of β-lactoglobulin-amylose conjugate.

β-Lactoglobulin (BLG), a major allergen of cow's milk, was conjugated with the N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of the amylose-glycylglycine adduct (AG-ONSu) to reduce its immunogenicity, and the biochemical and immunological properties of the resulting conjugate (AG-BLG) were studied. The conjugate was prepared by modifying BLG with AG-ONSu, and was purified in a Sephadex G-100 column. The analytical data for AG-BLG indicated that 10.

Reduction of the immunogenicity of beta-lactoglobulin from cow's milk by conjugation with a dextran derivative.

Beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) was conjugated with the N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of the dextran-glycylglycine adduct (DG-ONSu) to reduce the immunogenicity of BLG, a major allergen of cow's milk, and some immunological properties of the conjugate (DG-BLG) were studied. The conjugate was prepared by modifying BLG with DG-ONSu and purified in a Sephadex G-100 column. The analytical data for DG-BLG indicated that 5.
