Abstract
Summary Introduction. Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) with Pru p 3 can prevent severe allergic reactions to LTP-containing foods, but the standard initiation protocol is time-consuming. Objectives. Establish the safety of a novel ultra-rush initiation protocol for SLIT with Pru p 3. Methods. Prospective study comparing the side effects of the standard vs novel ultra-rush initiation protocols of SLIT with Pru p 3 in patients with anaphylaxis to LTP. Results. Fifteen patients were included (standard initiation, 5; ultra-rush initiation, 10), 80% females. All patients had oropharyngeal pruritus during initiation, 80% with spontaneous recovery, but no other gastro-intestinal, respiratory, cutaneous or systemic side effects occurred in any patient of both groups. Conclusion. The novel ultra-rush protocol halved the build-up time without increasing side effects.

Abstract
This work addresses a technological advance applied to the construction of a magnetogenoassay with electrochemical transduction for the maize taxon-specific (HMGA gene) detection using gold-coated magnetic nanoparticles as nanosized platform. Superparamagnetic core-shell Fe3O4@Au nanoparticles (10.4 ± 1.7 nm) were used to assemble the genoassay through the covalent immobilization of HMGA DNA probes onto carboxylated self-assembled monolayers at the nanoparticles surface. A hybridization reaction using sandwich format was selected to prevent inefficient hybridization connected with stable secondary DNA structures using also fluorescein isothiocyanate as DNA signaling tag. The labelling of the hybridization reaction with enzymes allowed the chronoamperometric measurement of the peroxidase activity linked to the nanoplatform located on gold surface. Using this electrochemical magnetogenoassay a linear concentration range from 0.5 to 5 nM and a LOD of 90 pM with a RSD <1.2% was calculated. Certified maize was evaluated without further purification after PCR amplification. This work highlights the efficacy of the electrochemical magnetogenoassay for the HMGA detection, showing its potential as alternative procedure for the verification of the compliance of the legislation.
