Western blot analysis to confirm biscuit contamination by hidden cow’s milk protein

Résumé

IgE-mediated food allergies can cause life-threatening anaphylaxis. Management of these allergies is based on a strict avoidance diet in relation to foods that may contain the allergen. The European regulations issued by the INCO (consumer information) provide a list of 14 allergens subject to mandatory declaration [1]. These allergens must be listed (in bold, underlined, large font, etc.) on food packaging in order to allow ready identification when consumers examine the labeling. The precautionary labeling, which is not regulated, includes statements at the end of the list of ingredients [2]. In France, the most frequent main allergens responsible for IgE-mediated allergies in children under 2 years of age are Cow’s Milk (CM) proteins, eggs, and peanuts [3], all of which are on the list of allergens subject to mandatory declaration. In this study, we report the case of a child who developed anaphylaxis after having consumed a biscuit labeled as having no cow’s milk proteins.
