New method extracts vital components from wheat gluten for improved products!
Researchers investigated how to extract glutenin and gliadin from vital wheat gluten. They found that the best conditions were using 65% ethanol, a 30:1 ratio of solvent to gluten, and extracting for 3 hours. The most important factors for getting the highest yields were the concentration of ethanol, the ratio of solvent to gluten, and the extraction time.
