Insights into the underlying immunological mechanisms of prophylactic sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) may support the development of new strategies for improved prevention and treatment of food allergy. Here, we investigated the humoral, regulatory and sublingual tissue immune response to prophylactic SLIT administration of a single purified peanut allergen in Brown Norway (BN) rats. BN rats received daily sublingual administration of peanut allergen Ara h 6 for three weeks.

Background: Aflatoxin B (AFB), a potent carcinogen produced by species, is a prevalent contaminant in oil crops, with prolonged exposure associated with liver damage. Home-made peanut oil (HMPO) produced by small workshops in Guangzhou is heavily contaminated with AFB. Despite the enactment of the Small Food Workshops Management Regulations (SFWMR), no quantitative assessment has been conducted regarding its impact on food contamination and public health.

The impact of animal-based food production on climate change drives the development of plant-based alternatives. We demonstrate the use of colloidal thermogelation on a real nanoemulsion system to create structured gels that could be of interest for thermo-mechanical processing of next-generation plant-based food applications. We use a commercial pea protein isolate (PPI) without further purification to stabilize a 20 vol% peanut oil-in-water nanoemulsion at pH = 7 by high-pressure homogenization (HPH) and demonstrate the temperature induced gelation behavior of the nanoemulsion as a function of the HPH processing parameters.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study analyzed serum allergen-specific IgE (sIgE) in 3,822 patients with respiratory and skin diseases in Shanghai over one year to help understand and improve the diagnosis and treatment of allergies in the region.
  • - Results revealed that 88.4% of patients tested positive for at least one allergen, with 72.9% exhibiting multiple allergy sensitivities; the most common allergens included house dust mites, milk, fungi, and certain tropical mites.
  • - Statistical analysis indicated that certain allergens like cat dandruff were more prevalent in respiratory diseases, while food allergens like shrimp and crab showed lower positivity rates, providing insights into the allergen distribution for targeted prevention strategies.
