ABSTRACT
Plant-origin foods, especially nuts and seeds, are the most important sources of food allergic reactions. An important characteristic is the quantitative and qualitative variability of their content in allergenic molecules, depending on plant growth, ripening, environmental stresses or industrial processing. In this review we will focus on newly identified allergens. Recent research have characterized and extensively studied their biochemistry, structure and immunological properties.
