Development in the Modification of Gluten and its Application
research interested into the use of natural biopolymers
which was a way of preventing environment pollution
putting into effect of green chemistry and development of human being in perfect harmony. Gluten was a byproduct of cereal industry which was abundant
biodegradable and reproducible biopolymer. Because of its viscoelasticity
extensibility
film-forming and thermosetting
people paid more attention to gluten
which could be used as raw materials for polymer products in technical applications as well as food additives. The present paper reviewed the composition of wheat gluten
the principles and methods for chemical modification
physical changing and enzyme reaction of wheat gluten. Besides
the application and prospect of gluten was also described.
