This research is about getting more of the gliadin out of processed foods for testing -- since the current procedures apparently only extract 44%, that would mean tested foods (as a whole, not raw ingredients) would generally have (over) double the amount found by ELISA testing!

Also, the new test can find the proteins from rye and barley!

=============

Eur J Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2005 May;17(5):529-39.

Development of a general procedure for complete extraction of

gliadins for heat processed and unheated foods.

Garcia E, Llorente M, Hernando A, Kieffer R, Wieser H, Mendez E.

OBJECTIVES: In the past, one of the major problems in gluten analysis

has been the unavailability of an efficient, universal, extraction

procedure of gliadins - the alcohol-soluble proteins of gluten - from

both heat processed and unprocessed products. This study was designed

to develop a universal, extraction procedure capable of extracting

the totality of gliadins from both unprocessed and heat processed

foods for coeliac patients. METHODS: A simple quantitative extraction

solution containing 250 mM 2-mercaptoethanol and 2 M guanidine

hydrochloride ('cocktail'), was developed to extract gliadins from

heated foods. RESULTS: The diluted reducing and disaggregating agents

reaching the micro plate at low concentration do not affect the ELISA

system based on the R5 monoclonal antibody. The recovery of gliadins

extracted by the cocktail from spiked samples was nearly complete,

with an average mean value of 95.5%, which is clearly superior to

44.4% obtained with conventional 60% aqueous ethanol. The cocktail

always yielded either slightly similar or higher values than 60%

aqueous ethanol depending on the type of foods: 1.1-fold in unheated

foods, 1.4-fold in wheat starches and 3.0-fold in heated foods. False

positives or negatives were never observed using the cocktail

solution. CONCLUSION: We present a general complete gliadin

extraction procedure based on reducing and disaggregating agents for

both heated and unheated foods as a crucial tool for gliadin

analysis. The new extraction solution is used for corresponding

proteins from rye (secalins) and barley (hordeins). The cocktail was

employed as the extraction method in the international ring trial

evaluation of sandwich R5-ELISA as proposed by the Codex Alimentarius

and organized by the Working Group on Prolamin Analysis and Toxicity.

Thousands of runners at the start of the London marathon yesterday. Picture: EPA

Relief all round after Paula pauses on road to glory

JOHN INNES

FOR 15 terrible seconds it looked like the curse of Athens had struck again. With just four miles to go to the end of the London marathon, Paula Radcliffe pulled up and stopped at the side of the road, apparently in severe pain.

But with anxious millions watching on television, the tears never came - Radcliffe had stopped to relieve herself.

Within a matter of seconds, she was back running on the streets of east London - still ahead of the pack and with her trademark grimace intact - and went on to win the race with a gap of five minutes over her nearest rival.

Speaking soon after the race, Radcliffe apologised for her unscheduled toilet break and revealed that severe stomach cramps had forced her to stop - blaming too much grilled salmon the night before.

"I want to apologise to the nation - I had to stop. I didn

There was another article that required me to register free to view. I've done that sort of thing before, but only on the ones that actually seem quite interesting ;).

This isn't an article, but I just found it. Free celiac recipes: :lol:

This may not be the right thread to add this, but Keith Olbermann mentioned celiac on his show last night. The stick puppets from Michael Jackson Puppet Theater are being auctioned on e-bay and 100% of the proceeds go to the celiac sprue association.

I kind of wish Keith hadn't said he has a "mild case of it". I'm sure he was being sarcastic but people unfamiliar with the condition wouldn't know that.

Here's the link to the auction

Wow...$15,000 so far! Too bad it's the CSA and not GIG or some research program, but hey, it's celiac. ;)

      50 YO Male Recently Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
