Test kit for food intolerance in patients with irritable bowel syndrome
A patent application (Publication Number: US20230417758A1) describes a test kit designed for testing food intolerance in patients diagnosed with or suspected to have irritable bowel syndrome. The kit includes a variety of distinct food preparations coupled to individually addressable solid carriers. These food preparations have specific discriminatory p-values, indicating their effectiveness in identifying food intolerances. The kit allows for testing with a range of food items, including cocoa, tea, oat, cabbage, cow milk, onion, honey, and more, providing a comprehensive approach to identifying potential triggers for food intolerance in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.
Furthermore, the patent application outlines a method for testing food intolerance in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. This method involves contacting a food preparation with a bodily fluid of a patient, allowing IgG from the bodily fluid to bind to components of the food preparation. By measuring IgG bound to these components and comparing the results to gender-stratified reference values, the method can generate a report indicating potential food intolerances. The method also includes steps for normalizing results, identifying subsets of patients with sensitivities to specific food preparations, and determining the numbers of food preparations needed for confirming irritable bowel syndrome. Overall, the patent application presents a comprehensive approach to diagnosing food intolerance in patients with irritable bowel syndrome using a variety of distinct food preparations and solid carriers for testing.
