What is this presentation about?
• Introduction
What is gluten?
What gluten-related disorders are there?
What is the legal definition of “gluten-free”?
Gluten = a protein fraction from wheat, rye, barley, oats or their crossbred varieties and
derivatives thereof, to which some persons are intolerant and that is insoluble in water and 0.5M
NaCl.
(AOECS definition)
3
Gluten as the cause of various diseases
• Coeliac Disease
• Gluten ataxia
• Wheat sensitivity
4
What happens in the case of Coeliac Disease? (simplified)
Tabelle entnommen aus: E. Arranz et al: Advances in the Understanding of Gluten Related Pathology and
Relevant (immunogenic) epitopes of
prolamins and glutelins from wheat,
rye, barley, partially oats
Sensitivity
varies across
those affected
Dyspepsia
Weight loss
Malnutrition
Other symptoms
5
Two essential legal regulations have to be observed
Comments:
• daily intake of gluten should not exceed 20 mg for coeliacs
• sensitivity varies across those affected
• beverages are consumed in larger quantities than solids

Today’s standard analytics have weaknesses – further development is
required here!
• there are various antibodies with varying sensitivity to Further epitopes may be
specific epitopes present in the sample!
Antibody used • acc. to Codex and AOECS Standards:
monoclonal R5 antibodies (Mendez) against secalin Coeliacs’ reactions vary
• epitopes detected by R5: QQPFP, QQQFP, LQPFP, QLPFP across epitopes!

17
The greatest challenge in the production of Pioneer is to avoid
contamination with glutenous material.
18
Further challenges in the production of Pionier arise from the
processability of ULG barley.
19
Additional challenges exist in securing the supply of raw materials
Supply risk
• raw materials are in limited supply
• reasonable risk management using
− various growing regions
− various transport routes
− various warehouses
− various batches of malt
