Abstract
Food allergiesfood allergies are a significant public healthpublic health concern, necessitating innovative strategies for managing allergenicityallergenicity in food products. This chapter provides an in-depth exploration of biotechnologicalbiotechnological approaches to developing hypoallergenic foodshypoallergenic foods, focusing on the reduction or elimination of allergenic components. Beginning with a detailed background, the chapter highlights the significance of hypoallergenic food processingfood processing in ensuring dietary safety and improving the quality of life for individuals with food allergiesfood allergies. The fundamentals of hypoallergenic food development are discussed, including the definition, characteristics, and immunologicalimmunological basis of allergenic reactions, as well as common allergens in widely consumed foods. Biotechnological techniquesbiotechnological techniques such as genetic modificationgenetic modification, enzymatic treatment, and nanotechnologynanotechnology are explored for their potential in reducing allergenic properties without compromising nutritional quality. Additionally, this chapter delves into analytical methods, molecular characterization of allergenic proteins, and bioinformatics tools for allergenallergen prediction to enhance the identification and characterization of allergens. Case studies illustrate the successful application of these techniques, including genetically modified cropsgenetically modified crops, enzyme-modified products, and nanotechnology-based solutions. The regulatory framework and safety assessmentsafety assessment protocols surrounding hypoallergenic food development are thoroughly examined, highlighting international standards and safety testing protocols to ensure consumer protection. Challenges such as regulatory barriers, consumer acceptance, and the evolving nature of food allergies are discussed alongside future perspectives in the field. This chapter underscores the transformative role of biotechnology in addressing food allergies, paving the way for innovative solutions that align with public health priorities. By integrating scientific advancements with regulatory and consumer considerations, this chapter provides a holistic approach to hypoallergenic food processing, offering valuable insights for researchers, policymakers, and industry stakeholders.
