Wheat Gluten Quick Details

Wheat Gluten is also known as active gluten flour and wheat gluten. It is a natural protein extracted from wheat (flour). It is composed of a variety of amino acids. The protein content is as high as 75%-85%. It contains 15 essential amino acids for the human body. It is a nutrient-rich plant protein resource. It has viscosity, elasticity, extensibility, film formability and liposuction. Gluten is an excellent dough improver, which is widely used in the production of bread, noodles and instant noodles. It can also be used as a water-retaining agent in meat products. It is also the basic raw material of high-grade aquatic feed. In China, gluten is also used as efficient green flour gluten. It is used in the production of high-gluten flour and special bread flour. The amount of gluten is not limited. Gluten is also an effective way to increase the content of plant protein in food.

Wheat Gluten Application

1.Food industry

1).Flour-fortified and baked food

The most basic use of gluten is to adjust the protein content of flour. Many local flour manufacturers add gluten to low-gluten flour to meet the requirements of bread flour, instead of mixing expensive, imported high-gluten flour.

2). Gluten can combine fat and water to increase protein content, which makes gluten widely used in meat, fish and poultry products.

In meat products, gluten protein has many advantages as a binder, filler or extender.

3). As a vegetarian food substitute for meat, and the production of artificial expensive meat

2.Aquaculture

Aquaculture (including fish and crustaceans) is an increasingly expanding industry. Modern aquaculture relies on breeding to increase production.

3.Feed industry

Gluten has high protein content and relatively complete amino acid composition. In the feed industry, its excellent protein source can be used as feed for high-end animals and pets.
