The aim of the present study was to develop a validated target peptide multi-method by LC/MS/MS providing high specificity and sensitivity for plant allergen protein detection, plant identification in vegan or vegetarian products using peptide markers for quantification. The methodical concept considers the selection of target peptides of thermostable allergenic plant proteins (Gly m6 soy, Ses i6 sesame and (beta-conglutin from white lupine) by data base research, BLAST and in silico digestion using Skyline software. Different allergenic concentration levels of these proteins were integrated into our own reference bakery products and quantified with. synthesized isotopically labeled peptides after in-solution digestion using LC/MS/MS. Recovery rates within the range of 70-113\% and LOQ of 10 ppm-50 ppm (mg allergenic food/kg) could be determined. The results are independent of thermal processing applied during baking and of epitope binding site for the tested allergens. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.}, language = {en} }
