LOZANO-BENITO, D; CERECEDA-CHACON, A y ZAMORA-BENITO, A. Gluten quantification in Spanish individual operational rations. Sanid. Mil. [online]. 2022, vol.78, n.1, pp.42-44. Epub 19-Sep-2022. ISSN 1887-8571. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s1887-85712022000100008.
Introduction:
People with celiac disease can join the military training centers and and their diet during training exercises can be done through combat rations, individual or collective rations.
Objective:
To quantify the gluten in the combat rations with precautionary labeling of allergens (PAL) or gluten-free in its composition.
Material and Methods:
39 individual operational rations samples (23 with PAL and 16 without cereals with gluten in their composition) and 6 collective rations (without cereals with gluten in their composition) were analyzed using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit.
Results:
All samples were below the limit of quantification (< 5mg/kg of gluten) and the results met the quality criteria.
Conclusions:
The gluten results obtained on the samples and batches analyzed show a low risk of exposure.
