Markus, So that I can really feel safe in drinking beer again after some
25 years, I wonder if you could get some further information from the
distributor in Hagen. I decoded the gif portion of your posting, a
report from Dr. Herbert O. Gunther, a food chemist, which referred to the
sample as Sierra Madre mexican beer. Is Negra Modelo renamed before sale
in Germany, or is this report on a different beer. I have a vague
feeling that Sierra Madre in this country is a different beer, but given
my long abstinence, I could easily be wrong. Also, there is a note
stating that the test was also investigated with Elisa. Since the
commercial Elisa-based kit that one can buy here does not respond to the
prolamines of all 4 of the toxic grains (I think that oats are not
recognize), I wonder if you could find out whether it was negative for
all four grains when used to confirm the electrophoretic results? To
decode the report, I had to use Netscape, which without any volition on
my part, put the translated report on the Internet at http://www.pitt.
edu/~abrams/fax.gif in case anyone wants to look at it.
