Development of polyclonal antibodies to discriminate and quantify the gluten from three different sources

Current analytical methods used for gluten detection are not able to discriminate the specific source of gluten and tend to overestimate the overall gluten content if from rye and barley by at least 10-fold, leading to limit food choices for coeliac patients. The main objective of this research is to initiate the development of bioanalytical methods specific to wheat, barley and rye, with the aim to discriminate gluten sources and quantify total gluten with more accuracy.
