A method of making a mixed allergen product substantially free of replication viable organisms, comprising:
- blending 2 to 20 individual complete food allergens together to obtain bulk mixed allergen material comprising the 2 to 20 individual complete food allergens, wherein the blending comprises loading the 2 to 20 individual complete food allergens into a ribbon blender set at about 10 Hz to about 50 Hz for about 10 minutes to about 50 minutes;
- and
- sterilizing the bulk mixed allergen material by dry heat sterilization, thereby obtaining the mixed allergen product.
A method of making a mixed allergen product substantially free of replication viable organisms, comprising:
- blending 2 to 20 individual complete food allergens in a mechanical mixer to obtain bulk mixed allergen material;
- milling the bulk mixed allergen material to obtain milled mixed allergen material having less than about 10% by weight of particles having a diameter greater than 500 μm;
- filtering the milled mixed allergen material to remove the particles having a diameter greater than 500 μm, to obtain a filtered mixed allergen material;
- and
- sterilizing the filtered mixed allergen material, which comprises the 2 to 20 individual complete food allergens, by dry heat sterilization, thereby obtaining the mixed allergen product.
