Abstract

Celijakija je autoimuna gastrointestinalna bolest karakterizirana atrofijom vila sluznice tankog crijeva zbog konzumiranja glutena, proteina koji se nalazi u pšenici, ječmu, raži i zobi. Jedini lijek je doživotna bezglutenska dijeta. Svrha ovog istraživanja je utvrđivanje količine glutena u bezglutenskoj hrani namijenjenoj oboljelima od celijakije. ELISA-testom je obrađeno 28 uzoraka. 50% analiziranih bezglutenskih uzoraka sadrži gluten u količini većoj od 20 mg/kg. Rezultati su pokazali da analizirani uzorci sadrže određenu količinu koja bi mogla uzrokovati komplikacije u oboljelih od celijakije. Na temelju ovog istraživanja preporučuje se isticanje količine glutena na deklaraciji prehrambenog proizvoda.

Abstract (english)

Celiac disease is an autoimmune gastrointestinal disorder characterized by mucosal atrophy of the jejenum on exposure to gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye and oaks. The treatmant of celiac disease is a lifelong avoidance of dietary gluten . The aim of this study was to establish quantity of gluten in gluten-free food for patients with celiac disease. 28 gluten-free samples were tested using an ELISA-test. 50% of the analysed gluten-free samples were containing gluten in amount of more than 20 mg/ kg. Results are suggesting that gluten-free samples contain certain gluten amount which coud cause comlications to patients with celiac disease. Based on this study, it is recommended to declare amount of gluten in gluten-free food.
