Does thermal processing in industry influence the allergenicity of milk proteins?

Thermal processes (cooking) either have no influence on the allergenicity, make the allergenicity disappear, or manifest the sequence of allergenic proteins which were hidden before. They can also provoke interactions between different milk protein components (soluble proteins and casein micelles for example) as well as between lactose and proteins (Maillard reaction). These interactions are able to change the allergenicity of the original product.
