Application

Rabbit anti-gliadin (wheat)-peroxidase conjugate antibody can be used for immunoblot and ELISA(1:1000).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Gliadin proteins are associated with the harmful effects of celiac disease and gluten sensitive enteropathy in humans, causing characteristic changes in the small intestinal mucosa. In such cases, strict compliance to a gluten-free diet is usually recommended.

Gliadin is a class of glutamine containing, alcohol soluble proteins separable from wheat and rye glutens known as the prolamins. These proteins are associated with the harmful effects of celiac disease and gluten sensitive enteropathy in humans, causing characteristic changes in the small intestinal mucosa. In such cases, strict compliance to a gluten-free diet is usually recommended.
