Cutting-edge technologies such as genome editing and synthetic biology allow us to produce novel foods and functional proteins. However, their toxicity and allergenicity must be accurately evaluated. It is known that specific amino acid sequences in ...
Although Alternaria spores are well-known allergenic fungal spores, automatic bioaerosol recognition systems have not been trained to recognize these particles until now. Here we report the development of a new algorithm able to classify Alternaria s...
Pollen is the most common cause of seasonal allergies, affecting over 33 % of the European population, even when considering only grasses. Informing the population and clinicians in real-time about the actual presence of pollen in the atmosphere is e...
The shiitake mushroom is the second-largest edible mushroom in the world, with a high nutritional and medicinal value. The surface texture of shiitake mushrooms can be quite different due to different growing environments, consequently leading to flu...
In this work we present an automated approach to allergy recognition based on neural networks. Allergic reaction classification is an important task in modern medicine. Currently it is done by humans, which has obvious drawbacks, such as subjectivity...
BACKGROUND: Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) can induce immune tolerance to allergens by activating multiple mechanisms, including promoting IgG4 synthesis and blunting IgE production. However, the longitudinal data of sIgE and sIgG4 to allergen componen...
Fragrances are the most common chemicals in cosmetics to which people expose every day. However, the unwanted allergic reactions such as contact dermatitis caused by direct contact with fragrances may happen. In Directive 2003/15/EC of the EU, cosmet...
Allergic diseases have been the epidemic of the century among chronic diseases. Particularly for pollen allergies, and in the context of climate change, as airborne pollen seasons have been shifting earlier and abundances have been becoming higher, p...
