Detection of Fish Allergens in Foods Using an In-House Real-Time PCR Targeting the Ribosomal 18S rRNA Gene

Detection of Fish Allergens in Foods Using an In-House Real-Time PCR Targeting the Ribosomal 18S rRNA Gene

Fish is one of the major food allergens which, in sensitised individuals, can cause life-threatening allergic reactions, even when present in small amounts. To protect consumers’ health, the correct labeling of foods is important. The objective of the present study was to validate an in-house real-t...
