Mass spectrometry‐based approaches to assess the botanical authenticity of diet...
Grazina, Liliana; Mafra, Isabel; Monaci, Linda; Amaral, Joana S.Dietary supplements are legally considered foods despite frequently including medicinal plants as ingredients. Currently, the consumption of herbal dietary supplements, also known as plant food supplements (PFS), is increasing worldwide and some raw botanicals, highly demanded due to their popularity, extensive use, and/orwell-established pharmacological effects, have been attaining high prices in the internati...

Are Physicochemical Properties Shaping the Allergenic Potency of Animal Allergens?
Costa, Joana; Villa, Caterina; Verhoeckx, Kitty; Cirkovic-Velickovic, Tanja; Schrama, Denise; Roncada, Paola; Rodrigues, Pedro M.; Piras, CristianKey determinants for the development of an allergic response to an otherwise 'harmless' food protein involve different factors like the predisposition of the individual, the timing, the dose, the route of exposure, the intrinsic properties of the allergen, the food matrix (e.g. lipids) and the allergen modification by food processing. Various physicochemical parameters can have an impact on the allergenicity of...
Are physicochemical properties shaping the allergenic potency of plant allergens?
Costa, Joana; Bavaro, Simona Lucia; Benede, Sara; Diaz-Perales, Araceli; Bueno-Diaz, Cristina; Gelencser, Eva; Klueber, Julia; Larre, ColetteThis review searched for published evidence that could explain how different physicochemical properties impact on the allergenicity of food proteins and if their effects would follow specific patterns among distinct protein families. Owing to the amount and complexity of the collected information, this literature overview was divided in two articles, the current one dedicated to protein families of plant allerg...
