Abstract
The immune system has a complex to protect the host from infection by various pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. The immune system protects against infection by recognizing and destroying harmful foreign pathogens. As humans evolve over a long period of time, tolerance is formed to most foods that do not stimulate the immune system, but some foods induce immunity in certain individuals and cause allergic diseases. The immune system must understand the difference between foreign substances and your own body cells. There are different types of white blood cells, which are essential components of the immune system that protect the host from infection. Unlike other immune cells, mast cells and basophils are involved in food allergic reactions. This review article will look at peanut allergens, the most serious food allergies that threaten and irritate an individual’s immune system, putting them at risk of life.
期刊介绍:
The FSB journal covers food chemistry and analysis for compositional and physiological activity changes, food hygiene and toxicology, food microbiology and biotechnology, and food engineering involved in during and after food processing through physical, chemical, and biological ways. Consumer perception and sensory evaluation on processed foods are accepted only when they are relevant to the laboratory research work. As a general rule, manuscripts dealing with analysis and efficacy of extracts from natural resources prior to the processing or without any related food processing may not be considered within the scope of the journal. The FSB journal does not deal with only local interest and a lack of significant scientific merit. The main scope of our journal is seeking for human health and wellness through constructive works and new findings in food science and biotechnology field.
