Zein Quick Details:

Zeinl is the main protein in corn gluten meal. Because it is insoluble in water and lacks essential amino acids such as lysine and tryptophan, it also has color and odor problems, so it is rarely used as a food material. However, corn alcohol has good film-forming properties, gelation properties and strong antioxidant properties. With the development of highly decolorizing and deodorizing technologies, its application range has been greatly expanded, making it a widely used industry raw material.
