(a) Protein profiles of extracts from different seeds after SDS-PAGE and Coomassie staining. Lane 1: olive seed, Lane 2: sunflower, Lane 3: peanut, and Lane 4: cashew. (b)–(f) Immunoblots containing the same protein extracts as (a), probed with the sera from patients #1, #2, #3, #4, and #5 allergic to nuts. (g) Immunoblot containing the same protein extracts as (a) probed with the serum from a nonallergic patient (negative control).
