Milk is a white liquid produced by the mammary glands of female mammals and is the primary source of nutrition for newborns. Cow's milk is often used in adult diets but is one of the main causes of allergic reactions in infants and children. Cow's milk protein is found in many food products and can also be present in non-food sources, causing sensitization and allergic reactions.
Cow's milk and dairy products are widely used in nutrition and industry. Milk protein allergy is common, especially in infants, and can cause symptoms affecting the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system, and skin. Detecting sensitization to milk protein aids in diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of allergic conditions, as well as in preventing complications related to food hypersensitivity.
