Testing milk allergy in children showed that using specific milk protein fractions, rather than whole milk, improved diagnostic accuracy. This finding may allow some children to reintroduce dairy, like cheese, safely.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Allergy and Immunology
  • Clinical Nutrition
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Milk allergy is a common concern in children, often diagnosed through a combination of clinical history, atopy, and diagnostic tests.
  • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective management, including exclusion diets and careful reintroduction strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the diagnostic accuracy of allergy tests using whole milk versus specific milk protein fractions in children with suspected milk allergy.
  • To evaluate the potential for reintroducing milk products based on individual protein sensitivities.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted practical allergy tests on 32 children with suspected milk allergy, comparing responses to whole milk and its three most allergenic proteins.
  • Diagnosis was confirmed by clinical history, familial atopy, in vitro/in vivo tests, and symptom resolution on an exclusion diet.

  • Performed re-introduction tests in 11 children.

    • Main Results:

    • Allergy testing showed better agreement with the overall diagnosis when using specific milk protein fractions compared to whole milk.
    • Reduced allergic response to casein was observed in some children, suggesting differential protein sensitivities.
    • Symptom regression occurred in children following an exclusion diet.

    Conclusions:

    • Testing with specific milk protein fractions enhances the accuracy of milk allergy diagnosis in children.
    • Identifying specific protein sensitivities, such as to casein, opens possibilities for controlled reintroduction of dairy products like cheese.
