Who are the potential patients for Omalizumab for Food Allergy?
Food allergies affect an estimated 8% of the United States population and have risen significantly in the last 20 years.1 IgE-mediated reactions to food can range from simple urticaria to life-threatening anaphylaxis. The only treatment was avoidance of the allergen and treatment of allergic reactions with epinephrine until 2020, when an oral immunotherapy (OIT) product (Palforzia) was approved for the treatment of peanut allergy.2 There was no FDA approved treatment for other foods or multiple foods until the recent approval of omalizumab for any food allergy for patients 1 years of age or older with the appropriate total...

Real-world safety experience with Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) Allergen Powder-dnfp in 2,500 peanut-allergic children
Peanut allergy is one of the most common food allergies, affecting 1 –2% of the United States population.1 Symptoms typically manifest in childhood, often appearing at 12–24 months of age, and can include lifelong hypersensitivity.2 Although reactions from accidental peanut exposure are rarely fatal, severe reactions, including anaphylaxis, can occur with exposur e to variable amounts, including trace amounts for some.2 Epinephrine is the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis, and individuals with peanut allergy must always carry injectable epinephrine.

Highly efficient dual-mode detection of AFB1 based on the inner filter effect: Donor-acceptor selection and application
Anal Chim Acta. 2024 Apr 15;1298:342384. doi: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342384. Epub 2024 Feb 22.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: The utilization of inner filter effect (IFE) brings more opportunities for construction of fluorescence immunoassays but remains a great challenge, especially how to select best donor in the face of extensive fluorescent nanomaterials. Aflatoxin B1 possesses high toxicity among mycotoxins and is frequently found in agricultural products that may significantly threaten to human health. Therefore, with the help of signal transduction mechanism of IFE to develop a convenient and sensitive approach for AFB1 detection i...

Primary, secondary and tertiary prevention of food allergy: current practices and future directions
Allergol Immunopathol (Madr). 2024 Mar 1;52(2):32-44. doi: 10.15586/aei.v52i2.1023. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTThe incidence of food allergies has risen around the globe, and experts have been exploring methods of preventing such allergies in young children to ease the burden of disease and reduce the morbidity and mortality caused by anaphylaxis to food allergens. Such preventative measures can be categorised as primary, secondary and tertiary prevention, which are discussed in detail in this review. Primary prevention is defined as the prevention of becoming sensitised towards specific allergens. The evidence suggests that...
