The Investigation of the HLA System and Wheat Gluten in Determining Risk of Schizophrenia
… to linear peptide antigens derived from wheat gluten in schizophrenia. The major findings from this work are as follows:<br/>1. The HLA-DQ2.5 variants were strongly associated with schizophrenia; this<br/>finding is consistent with that from GWA study.<br/>2. The NOTCH4 association was …

Quality attributes of breads made from wheat-millet composite flours fortified with vital wheat gluten
… americanum</u> (L.) Leeke) flour into wheat (<u>Triticum aestivum</u> L.) flour along with vital wheat gluten were evaluated. Bread was made from wheat flour (control) and composite flours of 30%, 4O%, and 50% pearl millet Flour replacement with (5%) and without vital wheat gluten. The …

Examination of the Effects of a Sphingolipid-Enriched Lipid Fraction from Wheat Gluten on the Incidence of Diabetes in BBdp Rats
… if a sphingolipid-enriched lipid fraction from wheat gluten could affect the incidence of type I diabetes in BioBreeding diabetes prone (BBdp) rats. Wheat gluten was extracted with a chloroform-methanol (CM) mixture to isolate most of the lipids. Isolated lipids were subjected to silica gel …

Effect of dietary protein source on satiety, postprandial blood biomarkers, and metabolism
… following the meal than when provided a 35% wheat gluten protein meal. The objective of this study was to examine the effect of the source and level of protein on subsequent feeding behavior, metabolism, and changes in plasma amino acids and insulin levels in order to identify possible …

The Effect of Dietary Fat Level on Tumor Development and Immunity in BALB/C Mice Fed Casein of Wheat Gluten as Protein and Challenged with Herpes Type 2-transformed Cells
… fat, low protein diet in which the protein was wheat gluten. The present research was designed to determine to what extent the level of fat and to what extent the source of protein were factors in tumor development and to determine relationships of these with cell-mediated immunity. Secondly, …

Breakfast dietary protein sources affect satiety and cognitive performance
… with protein provided from either egg white or wheat gluten. The basal diet provided 20% energy from protein, and protein was provided equally by egg white and wheat gluten. Rats provided the egg white diet consumed less during the subsequent period while those that were fed the wheat gluten …

Application of Functional Amyloids in Morphological Control and in Self-assembled Composites
… design. In this study, it is shown that wheat gluten (WG) and gliadin:myoglobin (Gd:My) amyloid morphology can be varied from predominantly fibrillar at low polypeptide concentration to predominantly globular at high polypeptide concentration as measured at the nanometer scale using …

Plant proteins as multifunctional additives in polymer composites
Wheat gluten, wheat gliadin, and corn zein agricultural proteins were evaluated as multifunctional additives that: (1) provided reinforcement, (2) improved thermal stability, and (3) lowered the cost of polymer composites. Wheat proteins were utilized in two polymer matrices: poly(vinyl alcohol) …

Changes in Pancreatic and Jejunal Histopatholgy and Serum IFN-γ, TNF-α Levels in Type 1 Diabetes: Role of Chloroform Methanol Soluble Gliadin Proteins
… enriched fraction of CM soluble extract of wheat gluten triggers type 1 diabetes. Therefore, to study the involvement of CM soluble gliadin proteins in type 1 diabetes, we retrospectively analyzed proteins from sphingolipid enriched extract. SDS-PAGE analysis of CM soluble extract of wheat …

The nutritive value of dried rumen microbiota
… but it is better than that of a soy protein and wheat gluten. No amino acid deficiency appeared in the feeding trials even though the amino acid composition showed that the dried rumen microbiota might be deficient in sulfur-containing amino acids.

Simulation of temperature history and estimation of thermal properties of food materials during freezing
… food substances (sucrose, methyl-cellulose, and wheat gluten) during freezing. Temperature data from one-dimensional freezing experiments were used to estimate the temperature dependent thermal properties of these materials during freezing using the Modified Box-Kanemasu estimation method. The …

Functional Protein Based Materials
The proteins wheat gluten and gelatin were tested for use in biocomposites and soft actuating materials, respectively. In Chapter II, the self-assembly mechanism of trypsin hydrolyzed wheat gluten (THWG) into rigid β-sheets was applied to an aqueous polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) environment. Aqueous PVA …

Maintenance requirement for lysine by mature female rats
… that either adequate lysine was provided by wheat gluten in the diet, or the mature rat did not require lysine in order to maintain tissue level of protein. In future studies, it was necessary to use a diet with lysine levels lower than 0.097 percent to determine the minimum lysine …

Investigation of the Interaction of Modified Soy Protein Fractions With Wheat Starch Granule Components
In order to produce traditional wheat products with a significant soybean protein addition, a thorough understanding of each product's individual physicochemical, structural and dynamic nature is necessary. Significant research has been conducted on the function of wheat gluten in bakery products. …

The Protein Efficiency Ratios of Certain Individual and Supplemented Plant Foods
… show satisfactory reproductive responses. When wheat gluten, lentils or pinto beans were used individually as protein sources, the resulting PERs were significantly below that of the control group.</p> <p>The most important aspect of this study was the development and testing of vegetable …

The Effect of Antioxidants on Flaxseed Stability in Yeast Bread
… BHA, BHT, BHA and BHT, and ascorbic acid. Vital wheat gluten was added in all the flaxmeal breads. Chemical, objective and sensory tests were used to evaluate the breads. The crumb texture of all the experimental breads was significantly softer (p¡à 0.05) than the control breads, but the control …

The design of a pilot plant for the production of monosodium glutamate
… glutamate is made from Steffan's waste, corn gluten, wheat gluten, and other similar proteinaceous materials. In trying to find moro and better uses for soybeans, it was discovered that soybean meal was an excellent raw material for making monosodium glutamate because of the high percentage of …

Economically motivated adulteration: implications for food protection and alternate approaches to detection
… was evaluated using melamine adulteration of wheat gluten as a case study. This biosurveillance-like methodology can be applied to food import data to identify supply chain shifts that could indicate changes in the market for food products and a heightened risk of EMA. Regulatory agencies have …
