It is estimated that millions of people are allergic to certain ingredients in alcoholic beverages. Drinking alcohol usually causes various reactions, including dilated blood vessels, redness of the skin, and swelling of the nasal passages. In cases where such allergies exist, it is usually a component of the alcohol (such as yeast or sulfur dioxide) that triggers the reaction rather than the alcohol itself. In addition, sulfites, eggs, grapes, corn, molds, and pesticides used to preserve or enhance the product can potentially become present in alcohol as part of the manufacturing process. Although non-alcoholic beverages such as soft drinks and vitamin water do not contain any common food allergens, these beverages may contain a variety of herbs, vitamins, and caffeine that can trigger allergic reactions.
Regulations require all wine producers to label allergenic substances in alcoholic beverages and drinks. As a global allergen testing company, Lifeasible is committed to providing efficient and reliable quantitative testing of allergens in alcohol and beverages to ensure your 100% satisfaction. Our highly skilled scientists develop a wide range of detection platforms for alcohol and beverage allergens in food, including a combination of LC-MS/MS and sandwich ELISA.
Wine may contain added sulfites to increase shelf life. Different egg and dairy products are added to wine as clarifying agents to fine-tune the flavor or preservation of the wine. We offer a comprehensive allergen testing service for alcoholic beverages.
