Abstract
Peanut allergen monitoring is currently an effective strategy to avoid allergic diseases, while food matrix interference is a critical challenge during detection. Here, we developed an antifouling surface plasmon resonance sensor (SPR) with stratified zwitterionic peptides, which provides both excellent antifouling and sensing properties. The antifouling performance was measured by the SPR, which showed that stratified peptide coatings showed much better protein resistance, reaching ultralow adsorption levels (<5 ng/cm2). Atomic force microscopy was used to further analyze the antifouling mechanism from a mechanical perspective, which demonstrated lower adsorption forces on hybrid peptide coatings, confirming the better antifouling performance of stratified surfaces. Moreover, the recognition of peanut allergens in biscuits was performed using an SPR with high efficiency and appropriate recovery results (98.2-112%), which verified the feasibility of this assay. Therefore, the fabrication of antifouling sensors with stratified zwitterionic peptides provides an efficient strategy for food safety inspection.

Abstract
Life-threatening allergic reactions to food allergens, particularly peanut protein Ara h1, are a growing public health concern affecting millions of people worldwide. Thus, accurate and rapid detection is necessary for allergen labeling and dietary guidance and ultimately preventing allergic incidents. Herein, we present a novel ratiometric fluorescence aptasensor based on multivalent aptamer-encoded DNA flowers (Mul-DNFs) for the high-stability and sensitive detection of allergen Ara h1. The flower-shaped Mul-DNFs were spontaneously packaged using ultralong polymeric DNA amplicons driven by a rolling circle amplification reaction, which contains a large number of Ara h1 specific recognition units and has excellent binding properties. Furthermore, dual-color fluorescence-labeled Mul-DNFs probes were developed by hybridizing them with Cy3- and Cy5-labeled complementary DNA (cDNA) to serve as a ratiometric fluorescence aptasensor platform based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Benefiting from the combined merits of the extraordinary synergistic multivalent binding ability of Mul-DNFs, the excellent specificity of the aptamer, and the sensitivity of the ratiometric sensor to avoid exogenous interference. The developed ratiometric aptasensor showed excellent linearity (0.05-2000 ng mL-1) with a limit of detection of 0.02 ng mL-1. Additionally, the developed ratiometric fluorescence aptasensor was utilized for quantifying the presence of Ara h1 in milk, infant milk powder, cookies, bread, and chocolate with recoveries of 95.7-106.3%. The proposed ratiometric aptasensor is expected to be a prospective universal aptasensor platform for the rapid, sensitive, and accurate determination of food and environmental hazards.

Abstract
Food allergies have become a global issue and are estimated to affect approximately 220 million people worldwide. Allergy to peanuts can easily become life-threatening and induce anaphylactic reactions. Mislabeling and cross-contamination during food processing can occur in the frame of world population growth and pose a serious health issue. As the mandatory allergen list is not uniform worldwide, the development of routine analytical strategies with high specificity and sensitivity is a demanding task to aid in the rapid identification of allergenic foods. In this work, an electrochemical aptasensor for Ara h1 peanut allergen was developed by immobilizing the specific aptamer by the inserting method. First, a layer of p-aminothiophenol (p-ATP) was immobilized on the gold surface of screen-printed electrodes (GSPE) to improve the aptamer insertion and reduce the fouling effects at the electrode surface. The grafting of the p-ATP and Ara h1 aptamer on the GSPE surface was monitored by cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The resulting disposable aptasensor allowed for indirect electrochemical detection of Ara h1 protein in the presence of 5 mM ferro/ferricyanide as a redox probe. The electrochemical response upon aptamer-target interaction was monitored in the concentration range 1-250 nM, and two limits of detection in the nanomolar range were estimated based on DPV (2.78 nM Ara h1) and EIS (0.82 nM Ara h1) measurements. The aptasensor was successfully applied to real sample analysis.

Abstract
Despite the increasing popularity of crustacean shellfish among consumers due to their rich nutrients, they can induce a serious allergic response, sometimes even life-threatening. In the past decades, a variety of crustacean allergens have been identified to facilitate the diagnosis and management of crustacean allergies. Although food processing techniques can ease the risk of crustacean shellfish allergy, no available processing methods to tackle crustacean allergies thoroughly. Strict dietary avoidance of crustacean shellfish and its component is the best option for the protection of sensitized individuals, which should rely on the compliance of food labeling and, as such, on their verification by sensitive, reliable, and accurate detection techniques. In this present review, the physiochemical properties, structure aspects, and immunological characteristics of the major crustacean allergens have been described and discussed. Subsequently, the current research progresses on how various processing techniques cause the alterations and modifications in crustacean allergens to produce hypoallergenic crustacean food products were summarized and discussed. Particularly, various analytical methodologies employed in crustacean shellfish allergen detection, and the effect of food processing and matrix on these techniques, are also herein emphasized for the appropriate selection of analytical detection tools to safeguard consumers safety.

Abstract
Sesame allergy is a serious public health problem and is mainly induced by IgE-mediated reactions, whose prevalence is distributed all over the world. Sesame has been included on the priority allergic food list in many countries. This review summarizes the mechanism and prevalence of sesame allergy. The characteristics, structures and epitopes of sesame allergens (Ses i 1 to Ses i 7) are included. Moreover, the detection methods for sesame allergens are evaluated, including nucleic-acid, immunoassays, mass spectrometry, and biosensors. Various processing techniques for reducing sesame allergenicity are discussed. Additionally, the potential cross-reactivity of sesame with other plant foods is assessed. It is found that the allergenicity of sesame is related to the structures and epitopes of sesame allergens. Immunoassays and mass spectrometry are the major analytical tools for detecting and quantifying sesame allergens in food. Limited technologies have been successfully used to reduce the antigenicity of sesame, involving microwave heating, high hydrostatic pressure, salt and pH treatment. More technologies for reducing the allergenicity of sesame should be widely investigated in future studies. The reduction of allergenicity in processed sesames should be ultimately confirmed by clinical studies. What's more, sesame may exhibit cross-reactivity with peanut and tree nuts.

Abstract
The unique characteristics of camelid heavy-chain only antibody (HCAb) derived nanobodies (Nbs) have facilitated their employment as tools for research and application in extensive fields including food safety inspection, diagnosis and therapy of diseases, etc., to develop immune detecting techniques or alternative candidates of conventional antibodies as diagnostic and therapeutic reagents. The wide application in the fields of food allergen inspection and immunotherapy has not been addressed as not much results published in the literature. The robust properties and straightforward selecting strategy of Nbs impel the advantageous employment compared with monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to establish immunoassay and serve as blocking antibodies to compete immunoglobulin E (IgE) binding epitopes on food allergens. More and more efforts have been invested to develop specific Nbs against food allergen proteins, such as macadamia allergen of Mac i 1, peanut allergen of Ara h 3, and lupine allergen of Lup an 1, which demonstrated the potential of Nbs for research and application in food allergen surveillance. Meanwhile, the paratopes of Nbs preferably targeting the unique epitopes of food allergens can provide more possibilities to serve as blocking antibodies to shield IgE binding epitopes for food allergy immunotherapy. Regardless, the research and application of Nbs in the field of food allergen and allergic reactions are expected to attract dramatic focus and produce promising research outputs.

Abstract
A near contrast color change was obtained by blending HNB and CR colorimetric LAMP detection process. The sensitivity of the dual-color blending method was comparable to the real-time LAMP. The ratio between the two visual dyes in the dual-color blending method is crucial. The reaction is conducted in one tube and no lid-opening was needed.
Food allergy has been a serious public health problem around the world. Its prevention relies heavily on the effective avoidance of any contaminated food, making clear and accurate detection very important. LAMP is one of the most potent methods for allergen rapid detection. However, its current colorimetric readouts usually have low color contrast and narrow color variation range. Thus, here we proposed a strategy based on color evolution to enlarge the variation range as well as the contrast to improve its suitability for naked-eye observation. By simply blending two commonly used color change processes during amplification, a wider color variation window, and a near contrast color change, purple-to-green with a hues difference of 10 were obtained. Three important allergens (walnuts, hazelnuts, and peanuts) were tested with a comparable sensitivity towards fluorescent real-time LAMP. Its feasibility for practical use has also been studied. This simple but effective strategy provides a new idea for the colorimetric detection of LAMP amplicons and can be applied to various fields.

Abstract
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) contains allergenic proteins, which make it harmful to the sensitised population. The presence of peanut in foods must be indicated on label, to prevent accidental consumption by allergic population. In this work, we use chloroplast markers for specific detection of peanut by real-time PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction), in order to increase the assay sensitivity. Binary mixtures of raw and processed peanut flour in wheat were performed at concentrations ranging from 100,000 to 0.1 mg/kg. DNA isolation from peanut, mixtures, and other legumes was carried out following three protocols for obtaining genomic and chloroplast-enrich DNA. Quantity and quality of DNA were evaluated, obtaining better results for protocol 2. Specificity and sensitivity of the method has been assayed with specific primers for three chloroplast markers (mat k, rpl16, and trnH-psbA) and Ara h 6 peanut allergen-coding region was selected as nuclear low-copy target and TaqMan probes. Efficiency and linear correlation of calibration curves were within the adequate ranges. Mat k chloroplast marker yielded the most sensitive and efficient detection for peanut. Moreover, detection of mat K in binary mixtures of processed samples was possible for up to 10 mg/kg even after boiling, and autoclave 121 °C 15 min, with acceptable efficiency and linear correlation. Applicability of the method has been assayed in several commercial food products.

Abstract
With the gradually increasing prevalence of food allergy in recent years, food allergy has become a major public health problem worldwide. The clinical symptoms caused by food allergy seriously affect people's quality of life; there are unknown allergen components in novel food and hidden allergens caused by cross contamination in food processing, which pose a serious risk to allergy sufferers. Thus, rapid and multiplex detection methods are required to achieve on-site detection or examination of allergic components, so as to identify the risk of allergy in time. This paper reviews the progress of high-efficiency detection of food allergens, including enhanced traditional detection techniques and emerging detection techniques with the ability high-throughput detection or screening potential food allergen, such as xMAP, biosensors, biochips, etc. focusing on their sensitivity, applicability of each method in food, along with their pretreatment, advantages, limitation in the application of food analysis. This paper also introduces the challenges faced by these high-efficiency detection technologies, as well as the potential of customized allergen screening methods and rapid on-site detection technology as future research directions.

Abstract
Biosensors have been widely applied in tests for allergens, but on-site detection remains a challenge. Herein, we proposed a detection procedure for peanut Ara h 1 as a representative allergen, which was extracted from a cookie, thereby minimising the need for any complex pretreatment that was difficult to perform, and enabling the visual detection of the target without the use of analytical equipment. The extraction procedure was performed in less than 30 min using a syringe and filter (0.45 μm). The detection method for Ara h 1 was based on the aggregation of switchable linkers (SL) and gold nanoparticles (AuNP), and the presence of 0.19 mg peanut protein per 30 g of cookie could be confirmed within 30 min based on the AuNP/SL concentration ratio by the precipitation. This proposed procedure could be successfully applied to the detection of a wide range of food allergens.

Use of IHF-QD Microscopic Analysis for the Detection of Food Allergenic Components: Peanuts and Wheat Protein. Foods 2020; 9:foods9020239. [PMID: 32102221 PMCID: PMC7074483 DOI: 10.3390/foods9020239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2020] [Revised: 02/19/2020] [Accepted: 02/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the study was to analytically evaluate quantum dots in immunohistofluorescence (IHF-QD) microscopic imaging as detectors of food allergens—peanut and wheat. The experiment was designed as two in silico experiments or simulations: (a) models of pastry samples were prepared with the addition of allergenic components (peanut and wheat protein components) and without the addition of allergenic components, and (b) positive and negative commercial samples underwent food allergen detection. The samples from both simulations were tested by the ELISA and IHF-QD microscopic methods. The primary antibodies (secondary antibodies to a rabbit Fc fragment with labeled CdSe/ZnS QD) were labelled at 525, 585, and 655 nm emissions. The use of quantum dots (QDs) has expanded to many science areas and they are also finding use in food allergen detection, as shown in the study. The study indicated that differences between the ELISA and IHF-QD microscopic methods were not observable among experimentally produced pastry samples with and without allergenic components, although differences were observed among commercial samples. The important value of the study is certainly the differences found in the application of different QD conjugates (525, 585, and 655). The highest contrast was found in the application of 585 QD conjugates that can serve for the possible quantification of present food allergens—peanuts and wheat. The study clearly emphasized that QD can be used for the qualitative detection of food allergens and can represent a reliable analytical method for food allergen detection in different food matrixes.

Abstract
Nucleic acid-based techniques could achieve highly sensitive detection by amplifying template molecules to millions of folds. It has been one of the most valued analytical methods and is applied in many detection fields, such as diagnosis of infectious diseases, food safety assurance and so on. Nucleic acid-based techniques consist of three steps: nucleic acid extraction, amplification, and product detection. Among them, the detection step plays a vital role because it shows the results directly. As the trend of detection is simple, rapid and instrument-free, it is of necessity to carry out visual detection, where the result read-out could be visible and distinguished by the naked eye. In this critical review, advanced visual detection methods are summarized and discussed in detail, aiming to promote the potential application in on-site detection.
