Modification of the functional properties of zein and kafirin protein films by oxidation using hydrogen peroxide

Maize and sorghum flours do not form viscoelastic doughs similar to wheat flour. However, isolated zein (maize prolamin) can form a viscoelastic dough when first cast into a film and then hydrated in water above its glass transition temperature (Tg). Wheat gluten functionality is strongly influenced...
