It remains unclear what daily intake of gluten is adequate and how long the gluten challenge should last. [3] Some protocols recommend eating a maximum of 10 g of gluten per day for 6 weeks. Nevertheless, recent studies have shown that 2-week challenge of 3 g of gluten per day may induce histological and serological abnormalities in most adults ...

These procedures are capable of detecting wheat or multiple cereals at concentrations as low as 1 part per million (PPM or 1 mg/kg). A new barley-sensitive ELISA called the R5 sandwich assay does not detect gluten in any of 25 pure oat varieties, but it does detect barley, wheat and rye. [15]
Gluten bears an innate response peptide (IRP) found on α-9 gliadin, at positions 31–43 and on α-3, 4, 5, 8, and 11 gliadins. The IRP lies within a 25 amino-acid long region that is resistant to pancreatic proteases. The 25mer is also resistant to brush border membrane peptidases of the small intestine in coeliacs. [3]
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. [106] [107]
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]
Nima delivers a binary result for the sample tested for gluten and peanut. The gluten sensor is tuned to 20 parts per million for gluten and 10 parts per million for peanut. If the sample contains 20 ppm or more of gluten, Nima is designed to deliver a gluten found indication, to indicate gluten was found.
The restrictions of the elimination diet are maintained throughout the challenge period. Open food challenges on wheat and milk can be carried out first, then followed by challenge periods with natural food chemicals, then with food additives. Challenges can take the form of purified food chemicals or with foods grouped according to food chemical.
