Abstract
Seafood is considered one of the main food allergen sources by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). It comprises several distinct groups of edible aquatic animals including fish and shellfish such as crustacean and mollusks. Recently the EFSA recognized the high risk of food allergy over the world and established the necessity of developing new methodologies for its control. Consequently, accurate, sensitive and fast detection methods for seafood allergy control and detection in food products are highly recommendable. In this work, we present a comprehensive review of the applications of the proteomics methodologies for the detection and quantification of seafood allergens. For that, two consecutive proteomics strategies (Discovery and Targeted Proteomics) applied for the study and control of seafood allergy are reviewed in detail. In addition, future directions and new perspectives were also provided.
