[REPORT SUMMARY] Definition of gluten derived T cell epitopes that are causative for coeliac disease
The work of this project has lead to a detailed characterisation of cereal peptides, which are recognised, by intestinal T cells of coeliac disease patients. The results demonstrate that the responses are diverse, but that there is a hierarchy as to how frequently the various ...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Method for identification and quantification of presence of T-2/HT-2 toxin producing Fusarium species in cereal matrices
The result is a real-time PCR method for quantification of DNA derived from the T-2/HT-2 producing Fusarium species F. langsethiae and F. sporotrichioides. The method determines a relative ratio between cereal derived DNA and DNA from the two fungal species.
The method can b...
