Particulate Allergen Calculator

Explore protein exposure from individual seeds, grains and nuts to support particulate allergen risk assessment.

How to use this tool

Select an allergen and choose the information you want to display. The tool uses literature data on unit weight and protein content to show protein per particle, reference-dose equivalents and implications for cross-contact risk.

Particulate allergen risk assessment (seeds / grains / nuts)

Select the particulate allergen:

Which information would you like to see? Protein content and particle weight Absolute protein per unit (minimum, maximum and average) Number of reference doses per unit (minimum, maximum and average) Does protein in one unit exceed the RfD? (minimum, average, maximum) Implications for cross-contact risk Reference dose (RfD) used
