This resulted from the different procedures used in the two assays. Among all the variables investigated, it was ascertained that differences in extraction medium were the main contributing factor. Extraction with 25 mM phosphate-buffered saline, as in ASTM D5712-99, gave higher protein content than extraction with water, as in ASTM D5712-95. The same was true of the allergen values of the extracts. back
