Food and Agricultural Immunology presents original immunological research with food, agricultural, environmental and veterinary applications. The primary focus of the journal is on the use of immunological techniques and methods which have food, agricultural or veterinary applications. The journal has a wide remit within its chosen subject and welcomes papers directed towards an understanding of the interactions at the interface of the food and immune systems including studies on:
  • Development of diagnostic systems – all types of ligand based assays, e.g. antibody, aptmer;
  • Application of ligand based assays to the detection or identification of molecules of interest in Food Science, Agricultural Research, Veterinary Investigations and Clinical Systems relating to Food Allergy or Sensitivity to Agricultural Chemicals;
  • Studies on allergy and allergic reactions:
  • Development of allergen-free food systems;
  • Development of novel assay formats;
  • Applications of assay systems to the monitoring of food items in relation to safety and labelling;
  • Food Quality issues, e.g. speciation, adulteration and contamination.
