beta amylase/hypersensitivity

The food enzyme considered in this opinion is a β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2), obtained from the grain of wheat (Triticum spp.) by Roquette (France). The β-amylase is intended to be used in starch processing for production of glucose syrups containing maltose to be used as a food ingredient. Since

The food enzyme considered in this opinion is a β-amylase (4-α-d-glucan maltohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.2), produced with genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain NZYM-JA by Novozymes A/S (Denmark). The β-amylase food enzyme is intended to be used in starch processing for the production of

The food enzyme considered in this opinion is a β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2) from soybean submitted by Nagase (Europa) GmbH. This β-amylase is intended to be used in the starch processing for maltose syrup production and the manufacture of a Japanese rice cake type. Based on the maximum use levels

The food enzyme considered in this opinion is a 4-α-d-glucan maltohydrolase (EC 3.2.1.2) obtained from grain of barley (Hordeum vulgare), by the companies Genencor International B.V. and Senson Oy. This β-amylase is intended to be used in several food-manufacturing processes: baking and

Background: Within the complex wheat flour proteome, the gluten proteins have attracted most of the attention because of their importance in determining the functional properties of wheat flour doughs and their roles in human health

Experiments were designed to determine if repeated inseminations of egg yolk diluent containing no semen would induce antibodies against egg yolk and would have an adverse effect on subsequent fertility under routine conditions of artificial insemination. Extender containing antibiotics polymyxin,

BACKGROUND Wheat flour is one of the world's major food ingredients, in part because of the unique end-use qualities conferred by the abundant glutamine- and proline-rich gluten proteins. Many wheat flour proteins also present dietary problems for consumers with celiac disease or wheat allergies.

Gluten proteins are major determinants of the bread making quality of wheat, but also of important wheat-related disorders, including coeliac disease (CD), and allergies. We carried out a proteomic study using the total grain proteins from two low-gliadin wheat lines, obtained by RNAi, and the
