My main research interests aim to gain knowledge of the molecular properties of allergenic proteins and their mechanism of action: - Identification of allergens by proteomic techniques. - Evaluation of the effect of the food matrix and technological processing on the gastrointestinal stability and allergenicity of food proteins. Assessment of their ability to sensitize and elicit anaphylactic responses. - Development of peptide-based strategies for allergy prevention and treatment.
