The sensitivity of GIP detection methods for cases of unintentional low gluten intakes is unknown. We studied the interindividual variability in the kinetic of excretion under homogeneously controlled dietary conditions, and the sensitivity of fecal GIP tests after low amounts of punctual gluten ingestions. Methods Participants (n = 20) followed the same gluten-free menu for 12 days in which two separated doses of gluten (50 mg and 2 g) were ingested and all the depositions were collected. GIP from stool samples were analyzed by ELISA and lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) tests. Results Most participants had detectable GIP after 50 mg and 2 g gluten ingestions using ELISA test (72.2% and 95%, respectively), whereas the LFIA test showed less sensitivity (22.2% and 80%, respectively). GIP were detected at higher either frequency or concentration in the range of 12–36 h after 50 mg intake, and 12–84 h after 2 g consumption. Considering this period, diagnostic sensitivity of GIP detection after a single 50 mg ingestion may be significatively increased analyzing three stool samples per individual. High variability among participants was found in the time and amount of GIP excretion; however, some individuals showed common patterns for both gluten intakes. Conclusion Sporadic gluten exposure detection may require several fecal samples to achieve level of sensitivity above 90%. Interindividual variability in the dynamic of GIP excretion may suggest patterns of gluten metabolism.}, organization = {Instituto de Salud Carlos III Spanish Government European Commission DI-16-08943}, organization = {Junta de Andalucia Consejeria de Economia, Conocimiento, Empresas y Universidad European Commission AT17_5489_USE}, organization = {Centro para el Desarrollo Tecnologico Industrial IDI-20180051}, organization = {Corporacion Tecnologica de Andalucia 17/957}, publisher = {Springer}, keywords = {Gluten immunogenic peptides}, keywords = {Gluten metabolism}, keywords = {Gluten detection feces}, keywords = {Gluten-free diet monitoring}, keywords = {Celiac disease}, title = {Individual variability in patterns and dynamics of fecal gluten immunogenic peptides excretion after low gluten intake}, doi = {10.1007/s00394-021-02765-z}, author = {Coto, Laura and Sousa, Carolina and Cebolla, Ángel}, }
