The possibility of using the developed equations reflecting the dependence of the raw gluten content (Y, %) on the protein content (X1, %) and the 1000-grain weight (X2, g) to predict its (gluten) content in wheat grain is discussed. The developed equations allow to determine the main trends in the change in raw gluten content of wheat grains, occurring when the protein content and 1000-grain weight vary under the influence of various factors, and explain the contradictory nature of these dependencies available in the scientific literature. The equations can be used to control the quality of the manual or mechanical determination of the raw gluten content of winter and spring soft and hard wheat grains, as well as to test the operation and reliability of the various analyzers used in protein and gluten analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
