Abstract:

The efects of content and quality of wet gluten on the rheological properties(critical stress value and elastic modulus)of three kinds of gluten protein(marked asⅠ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ with a decrease of wet gluten content) were investigated by using HAAKE Rheostress(RS600)and by means of the dynamic sweep(stress and frequency sweep)as well as the static sweep(creep and recovery),with the rheological property parameters such as the criti-cal stress and the elastic modulus as the investigation items.The results show that the three gluten proteins respec-tively exhibit the critical stresses of 49.59,24.88 and 1 2.48 Pa during the stress sweep,the elastic moduli of 1194,789 and 583 Pa during the frequency sweep with a sweeping frequency of 1.117 rad/s,and the deformations of 7.09% .9.43% and 14.29% during the creep and recovery sweep with a sweeping period of 5.11 min.It is
thus concluded that higher content of wet gluten results in better quality of wet gluten,larger critical stress and elas-tic modulus,as well as smaller deformation and shorter recovery time.
