“…Common foods that contain sesame seeds are vegetarian burgers, oriental food, bread, cakes, pastries, toppings, Parsi seed (tahini), spice mixtures, salad dressings and diet foods. Sesame seed oil may also contain allergens, and two cases of anaphylaxis to sesame oil have been described [3,15].…”

“…Not only the seeds, but also sesame oil has been implicated in allergic reactions (Chiu and Haydik 1991;Kanny et al 1996;Morisset et al 2003). Although the vast majority of oils consumed are highly processed and contain virtually no protein, crude oils, such as sesame oil, may contain trace amounts of protein and, therefore, have the potential to cause allergic reactions (Hefle and Taylor 1999).…”

Successful prediction of the potential allergenicity of a protein may be a key factor in the development of novel, genetically modified foods. The use of the decision tree approach for the prediction of allergenicity is discussed. The methods currently used for identifying allergenic proteins (including use of IgE from patient sera for recognition of proteins) are reviewed. Finally, a specific review of the literature concerning identification of allergens from sesame leads to the conclusion that in the absence of validated animal models, identification of allergenicity (and, consequently, prediction of allergenicity) may be problematic.
