Guest guest Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 Researcher studies wheat mutations to help celiac patientsThe NIH is making research into food-sensitive intestinal problems a priority and has awarded Washington State University researcher Diter von Wettstein an $837,000 grant to study wheat varieties that can be tolerated by people with celiac disease. His team is working with Arcadia Biosciences of Seattle to find specific gene mutations affecting gliadins, which are what celiac patients cannot tolerate. http://westernfarmerstockman.com/index.aspx?ascxid=fpStory & fpsid=34484 & fpstid=2 http://www.grisoft.com Anti-Virus Scanned this message Quote
