Yeah, okay-- this one is actually kind of technical in that the only real "conclusions" are that SOME people have enhanced response to ara h 2 and they could identify specific amino acid changes provoked by the roasting protocol... the clinical significance is mixed, and inconclusive, given the small scope of this abstract...

but I liked it because it appealed to me as a chemist.  <blush>   :thumbsup:
Resistance isn't futile.  It's voltage divided by current.

Similarly--

This is a study intended to tease out whether or not the other isomer (that is, the D versus L forms of particular amino acids in the protein) is what causes enhanced allergenicity commonly seen after roasting.


The answer is "probably not" incidentally.
