Background
Cow’s Milk Allergy (CMA) is the most common food allergy in infants and young
children and typically develops in the first year of life. It is not always easy to spot the
symptoms of CMA as they might be quite common in children. Cow milk allergy is a
problem in children because it will affect the growth and can develop into other
forms such as asthma and allergic rhinitis. The incidence of cow's milk allergy
ranges from 0.5% - 7.5% of infant birth rate in Indonesia per year under the age
of 1 year. Cow's milk allergy will decrease with age. The major protein
components that cause allergies in cow's milk are whey and casein proteins. The
more antigenic is the whey protein. Cow's milk allergy symptoms include
gastrointestinal, swelling and itching at the tongue and lips until orofarings,
vomiting, diarrhea, bloody stool. Skin symptoms such as urticaria (hives),
eczema (atopic dermatitis), in the airways such as cough, wheezing, asthma,
rhinitis and the common or systemic symptoms may include shock (shock)
anaphylaxis. Cow's milk allergy diagnosis based on history, physical examination
and investigations allergy symptoms such as allergy skin tests or pemerksaan
specific IgE to cow's milk protein. The gold standard test for cow milk allergy is
the elimination test and the provocation.
Conclusion
In general, smaller fragments is less allergenicity, but the extensivity of the
protein hydrolysis is not an absolute warranty against reaction. The rHF, as they
made from rice, they satisfy the first rule for every allergy : avoiding the allergen.
Under these circumtances, bath-tobatch differences in the peptide composition
will not affect the allergy risk.
