Food Allergy
American Society for Microbiology (Verlag)
978-1-55581-375-8 (ISBN)
Provides clinicians, scientists, educators, and regulators with an authoritative review of the field.
* Combines our knowledge and hypotheses about food allergy treatments, research directions, bioinformatics tools, and industry and governmental regulation guidelines into one valuable reference.
* Examines the identification and characterization of allergenic proteins within food sources, the underlying mechanisms of action, and treatment options.
* Emphasizes clinical aspects of food allergy and advances in diagnosis; cutting edge immunochemical theories and molecular mechanisms; immunotherapy and the role of animal models in advancing food allergy research; the effects of food processing on allergenicity; and methods for preparing hypoallergenic foods.
* Features in-depth coverage of bioinformatics tools.
