Nevertheless, in some cases, a gluten challenge with a subsequent biopsy may be useful to support the diagnosis, for example in people with a high suspicion for coeliac disease, without a biopsy confirmation, who have negative blood antibodies and are already on a gluten-free diet. [2] Gluten challenge is discouraged before the age of 5 years ...
This condition is known as refractory coeliac disease (RCD), defined as malabsorption due to gluten-related enteropathy (villous atrophy or elevated intraepitheal lymphocytes) after initial or subsequent failure of a strict gluten-free diet (usually 1 year) and after exclusion of any disorder mimicking coeliac disease.

The degree of gluten cross contamination tolerated by people with non-celiac gluten sensitivity is not clear but there is some evidence that they can present with symptoms even after consumption of small amounts. [37] Sporadic accidental contaminations with gluten can reactivate movement disorders associated with non-celiac gluten sensitivity. [72]
After developing an immune response, B-cells from mice can be fused with immortalizing cells to form a hybridoma that produces monoclonal antibodies (Mab or MoAb). Mab can be expressed in culture or via ascites fluid production to produce large amounts of a single antibody isoform. Mab can be used to detect levels of gluten in food
Unfortunately, as of this moment in February 2016, there’s very little solid scientific evidence to back a removal of gluten from the diet unless you have celiac disease, although some people do seem to have improved GI symptoms on a gluten-free diet, whether that’s from removing gluten specifically, or a more broadly, an adherence to a ...
