Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a simple method for selecting varieties of seeds from wheat, barley, rye and, in particular, oats, which enables said seeds, whether or not genetically manipulated, to be used in the production of gluten-free foods and beverages suitable for coeliac patients, and also the preparation of excipients for specific drugs. This invention is based on a simple immunological detection system that makes it possible to quantify the most immunogenic peptides of gluten with a view to ascertaining whether the cereal variety, preferably oats, can be used to produce suitable seeds that can form part of the diet of a coeliac patient. Preferred tests would make use of at least one antibody that recognizes the most immunogenic part of prolamines, the reactivity of which antibody vis-à-vis cereal seeds having been demonstrated to be proportional to the immunogenicity thereof with T-cells from coeliac patients.
