Download or read book The Gluten Proteins written by Domenico Lafiandra and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2007-10-31 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together recent, international contributions to the study of gluten proteins from leading experts in the field. Gluten proteins have gained greater importance due not only to their fundamental role in determining technological quality of wheat end products, but also to the apparently increased number of people showing different degrees of gluten intolerance or allergy. Along with classical subjects such as gluten genetics, quality and rheology, The Gluten Proteins covers new tools and research fields, including the use of proteomics and genomics. Furthermore, information dedicated to intolerances and allergies is included and opens the possibility to widen future research opportunities, promoting cooperation between wheat breeders, medical researchers and gluten chemists and geneticists. The Gluten Proteins provides an authoritative source of information for researchers, professionals and postgraduate students wishing to increase their knowledge of the molecular bases of gluten functionality and nutritional role, as well as touching on possible future research opportunities.
Download or read book Gluten Simulations written by Marek Cieplak and published by Eliva Press. This book was released on 2021-09-17 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gluten consists principally of intrinsincally disordered storage proteins (glutenins and gliadins) from wheat grains. During the breadmaking process these proteins form a network that is responsible for the extraordinary viscoelasticity of wheat dough that determine the quality of bread. This book sums up the pioneering simulations of gluten proteins, aimed for recreating their unique viscoelastic properties. The computer simulations use the Dynamic Structure Based model, which enables molecular dynamics of thousands of amino acids. The corresponding time-dependent properties are studied through shear and axial deformations of the simulation box. The two types of deformation turn out to have a different impact on the proteins. Glutenins are shown to influence the mechanics of gluten much more than gliadins. The measured quantities include the response force to the deformation, the number of entanglements and cavities, the mobility of residues, the number of the inter-chain bonds, etc. The dynamic shear modulus and critical strain are also calculated. The results are consistent with the existing ideas about gluten elasticity, e.g. the slip-bond theory which assumes that the gluten proteins can be treated as an interconnected network of polymers. The simulations emphasize the role of entanglements and hydrogen bonding. Five different systems are simulated: in addition to gliadins, glutenins and gluten (a mixture of both), storage proteins from maize and rice are also considered. The last two constitute a control group, that (according to expectations) has weaker elasticity. This validates the methodology used in this approach.

Download or read book Science of Gluten Free Foods and Beverages written by Elke Arendt and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In genetically susceptible individuals, the ingestion of gluten and related proteins triggers an immune-mediated enteropathy known as celiac disease (CD). Recent epidemiological studies have shown that 1 in 100 people worldwide suffers from CD—a rate that establishes CD as one of the most common food intolerances. CD patients that eat wheat or related proteins, such as hordeins (barley) and secalins (rye), undergo an immunological response, localized in the small intestine, that destroys mature absorptive epithelial cells on the surface of the small intestine. Currently, the only way to treat CD is the total life-long avoidance of gluten ingestion. Therefore, people that have CD must follow a very strict diet and avoid products that contain wheat, rye, and barley. Avoiding cereals leads to a recovery from the disease and significant improvement of the intestinal mucosa and its absorptive functions. Celiac patients are not in the position to eat some of the most common foods, such as breads, pizzas, and biscuits, or to drink beer and whiskey. Because of the unique properties of gluten, producing good-quality gluten-free products is a big challenge for scientists. Science of Gluten-Free Foods and Beverages covers the work presented at the First International Conference on Gluten-Free Cereal Products and Beverages. The area of gluten-free foods and beverages is becoming more and more important, since the number of people with CD and gluten allergies is rising. In the United Kingdom, 10% of the population claims to have food allergies. This book will be extensively referenced. It is meant to give an overview of the work being carried out in the area of gluten-free science.

Download or read book Gluten Free Food Science and Technology written by Eimear Gallagher and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-09-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coeliac disease (CD) and other allergic reactions/intolerances to gluten are on the rise, largely due to improved diagnostic procedures and changes in eating habits. The worldwide incidence of coeliac disease has been predicted to increase by a factor of ten over the next number of years, and this has resulted in a growing market for high quality gluten-free cereal products. However, the removal of gluten presents major problems for bakers. Currently, many gluten-free products on the market are of low quality and short shelf life, exhibiting poor mouthfeel and flavour. This challenge to the cereal technologist and baker alike has led to the search for alternatives to gluten in the manufacture of gluten-free bakery products. This volume provides an overview for the food industry of issues related to the increasing prevalence of coeliac disease and gluten intolerance. The properties of gluten are discussed in relation to its classification and important functional characteristics, and the nutritional value of gluten-free products is also addressed. The book examines the diversity of ingredients that can be used to replace gluten and how the ingredient combinations and subsequent rheological and manufacturing properties of a range of gluten-free products, e.g. doughs, breads, biscuits and beer may be manipulated. Recommendations are given regarding the most suitable ingredients for different gluten-free products. The book is directed at ingredient manufacturers, bakers, cereal scientists and coeliac associations and societies. It will also be of interest to academic food science departments for assisting with undergraduate studies and postgraduate research.
