Two trials were conducted to evaluate wheat gluten as an ingredient in calf feeds. In one trial, Holstein bull calves (n = 120) were assigned for 6 wk to one of five milk replacers, which contained different percentages of CP and different percentages of protein furnished from soluble wheat gluten. Within a given protein percentage, BW gains of calves were not affected by the percentage of protein that was supplied as wheat gluten. Calves fed milk replacer containing 18% CP with 33% wheat gluten gained as much as calves fed replacers containing 20% CP. In another trial, newborn Holstein calves (n = 62) were used. Protein supplements of the calf starters used until 7 wk of age were either soybean meal or spray-dried wheat gluten and soybean meal. No significant differences were observed between the two treatments. Also, no significant carry-over effect occurred when all calves received a common diet from 7 to 10 wk of age.

Whole grain flour is considered a part of a healthy diet, especially when produced with pigmented wheat (). However, the specific metabolic pathways and mechanisms by which these metabolites affect the end-use quality of pigmented wheat varieties still need to be better understood. This study examined the relationship between metabolite concentrations and the end-use quality of three wheat varieties: common wheat (CW, JM20), black wheat (BW, HJ1), and green wheat (GW, HZ148).

Non-celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity (NCGWS) is a syndrome for which pathogenesis and management remain debated. It is described as a condition characterized by gastrointestinal and extra-intestinal symptoms rapidly occurring after gluten ingestion in subjects who have had celiac disease or wheat allergy excluded. To date, the diagnosis of NCGWS is challenging as no universally recognized biomarkers have been yet identified, nor has a predisposing genetic profile been described.

Comparison and Classification of LMW-GS Genes at Loci of Common Wheat.

Genes (Basel)

January 2025

Wheat Research Institute, Henan Academy of Agricultural Sciences (HAAS), Zhengzhou 450002, China.

Background: The low molecular weight glutenin subunits (LMW-GS) of wheat have great effects on food processing quality, but the resolution of LMW-GS and the scoring of their alleles by direct analysis of proteins are difficult due to the larger number of expressed subunits and high similarity of DNA sequences. It is important to identify and classify the LMW-GS genes in order to recognize the LMW-GS alleles clearly and develop the functional markers.

Methods: The LMW-GS genes registered in GenBank were searched at NCBI, and 593 genes with complete coding sequences were obtained, including 146 , 136 , and 311 .

Quality Characteristics and In Vitro Digestibility of Starch Gel in White Noodles Prepared with Short-Chain Glucan Aggregates (SCGA).

Gels

December 2024

Department of Food Science and Biotechnology, Institute of Life Science and Resources, Graduate School of Biotechnology, Kyung Hee University, Yongin 17104, Republic of Korea.

Short-chain glucan aggregates (SCGA), a type of resistant starch (RS) Ⅲ, is produced by debranching amylopectin with pullulanase and inducing self-assembly. Despite its low digestibility and high RS content, SCGA has not been applied to real food systems, especially noodles. The objective of this study was to determine the feasibility of low-digestible noodles using SCGA and to evaluate their quality characteristics and in vitro digestibility of starch gel.

Effects of ratios of A- and B-type wheat starch on liangpi (a starch gel food) quality and its potential mechanism.

Carbohydr Polym

March 2025

School of Food Science and Technology, Jiangnan University, 1800 Lihu Avenue, Wuxi 214122, Jiangsu Province, PR China; Collaborative Innovation Center of Food Safety and Quality Control in Jiangsu Province, Jiangnan University, 1800 Lihu Road, Wuxi 214122, PR China. Electronic address:

The fractionation and reconstitution method was employed to investigate the impact of different proportions of A-type (AS) and B-type (BS) wheat starch on the quality of liangpi and its potential mechanism, with traditional gluten-removed liangpi (RGL) as a control. The results demonstrated that a higher AS/BS ratio led to an increase in hardness, resilience, and chewiness. Moreover, the sensory scores for BS-dominated liangpi were significantly lower than those for AS-dominated liangpi, and liangpi with 60 % AS had the highest sensory scores.
