Verdict
Peptide length is a critical concern; the CIR Panel raised IgE-mediated hypersensitivity concerns for oat-derived proteins/peptides (similar to hydrolyzed wheat protein issues); peptides >3,500 Da can crosslink IgE receptors. Peptide fraction isolated from oat protein extract by ultra-membrane filtration; structurally distinct from whole protein extracts
US Note
Allowed - CIR concluded safe when formulated to be nonsensitizing
