Procedure for selection of suitable cereal seeds to be consumed by celiac patients.

摘要

The present invention relates to a simple method for selecting varieties of seeds of wheat, barley, rye, particularly oats, which genetically manipulated or not allow the seed to be used in food production and free drinks gluten suitable for celiac patients, and even the development of certain drugs excipients. This invention is based on a simple system immunological detection to quantify the immunogenic gluten peptides in order to know if the variety of cereal, preferably oats, can be used to produce seed suitable may form part of the diet of a celiac. Preferred assays would use at least one antibody that recognizes the most immunogenic part of prolamins and whose reactivity to cereal seed has shown to be proportional to its immunogenicity with T cells of celiac patients.
