Celiac Test

Product Description

Self-test for the detection of anti deamidated gliadin (anti-DGP) antibodies, IgA and IgG, in blood, for celiac disease screening.

Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder that involves the inflammation of the small intestine due to gliadin intake: the protein portion of gluten found in various cereals (oats, wheat, barley, kamut, spelled, rye, spelled and triticale).

Gliadin is a water-soluble peptide that acts as “glue”, helping to maintain the shape of food, and able to pass through the intestinal epithelium. Recent studies have shown that people who suffer from celiac disease produce specific antibodies against gliadin deamidated peptides (anti-DGP), IgA and IgG, as a result of transglutaminase, which shows high specificity and sensitivity for celiac disease, thus allowing high accuracy in disease screening.
