Abstract
Ten adult patients with coeliac disease in clinical and histological remission were recruited from the coeliac outpatient clinic in St James's Hospital, Dublin. Each patient consumed 50 g of oats (as porridge) daily for 12 weeks while maintaining a strict gluten-free diet. Patient compliance was recorded daily using diaries, and all patients complied fully with the study protocol. The oats cereal (Peter Kolln, Germany) used in the study was tested for evidence of gluten contamination using reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography, enzyme linked immunoassay, and polymerase chain reaction techniques and was shown to be entirely gluten free.
