Celiac disease
Rapid CDIATM Celiac disease kits are intended to detect the celiac disease in aid to diagnosis and protection.
Celiac disease, also spelled coeliac disease, is an autoimmune disorder affecting primarily the small intestine that occurs in people who are genetically predisposed.
Celiac disease, shows a higher incidence in North America, Northern Europe, Australia. Male
to female ratio is 1: 1.3 ~ 2.0, and the incidence peak is mainly among children and young people. However, in recent years, the incidence
of elderly people increased.
Celiac disease is closely related to eating wheat, a large number of studies have
confirmed that wheat gum is possibily one cause of this disease.
Celiac disease patients are always hypersensitive to gluten containing food: barley, wheat, rye, oats, all these may be celiac
disease risk factors. With the peptidase in ormal intestinal mucosal cells, gulten can be
broken down into smaller molecules of non-toxic substances, but in
patients with active celiac disease, the peptidase
activity is not sufficient.
