Description

Lactoferrin is a major allergen in Milk. Lactoferrin is an allergen of the whey fraction of Milk and can be found in the Milk of most species at levels lower than 1%.

Lactoferrin is a non-heme-iron-binding globular multifunctional glycoprotein with antimicrobial activity, produced during lactation and by epithelial cells at mucosal surfaces. The protein is a prominent component of the first line of mammalian host defence, and its expression is up-regulated in response to inflammatory stimuli. Lactoferrin may act as a potent anti-inflammatory protein at local sites of inflammation, including the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. Human colostrum has the highest concentration, followed by human milk, then Cow's milk. Copyright Copyright © 2006 Phadia AB. Source: ImmunoCap, ImmunoCap
