Materials from lupine (Lupinus spp) plants are used as food ingredients Even small amounts can evoke allergic reactions in sensitized individuals The applicability of a recently developed real-time PCR method to the sensitive and specific detection of lupine DNA in processed foods was examined Using the preparation of pizza as a model changes in the amplification efficiency and in the limit of detection arising from various processing steps such as freezing and baking were observed For the starting flour the same limit of detection (0 1 mg/kg) as in raw foods was determined Freezing of the dough resulted in increased cycle threshold values compared to the flour and the prepare
