Technical aspects
Wheat gluten is a fraction of wheat grains composed mainly of proteins – glutenin and gliadin, as well as sugars and fats, subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis to obtain soluble amino acids – proline and leucine, and glutamic acid.
Hydrolyzed Wheat Gluten’s main properties are high protein content (80-84%), high solubility, and a high digestibility (around 95%). Hydrolysis enhances the digestibility rate in comparison to the complete protein. The content of ash and fiber is low. The Hydrolyzed Wheat Gluten product is neutral in color and taste, containing no anti-nutritional factors.
Alternative names: HWG, wheat protein hydrolysate, wheat gluten hydrolysate, hydrolyzed wheat protein.
