Relevance of the data – Can this data be<br />
interpreted for allergy risk?<br />
● Can we measure <strong>allergen</strong>s?<br />
15<br />
- Yes, ability is increasing all the time and with increasing sensitivity<br />
● What is the relevance to the population in terms of their risk for allergy?<br />
- Most <strong>allergen</strong>s still require further study to characterize their<br />
sensitization potential and the amount that causes clinical allergy<br />
- There is no existing hypothesis for a change to endogenous allergy<br />
risk based on GM varieties<br />
● So, even though we have the ability to measure <strong>allergen</strong> content the<br />
question remains – have we added value to the <strong>allergen</strong>icity<br />
assessment?
