“…Tripeptide glutathione occurs in flour in the free reduced (GSH) and free oxidised (GSSG) forms, as well as in the form of protein/glutathione mixed disulfides (PSSG) . Although comprising only a small portion (10%) of total free SH groups, gluthatione, as being a low molecular weight (LMW) thiol, diffuse more rapidly in dough than higher molecular weight proteins . Therefore, it is considered to be rheologically more effective than HMW proteins .…”

“…The total cysteine content of gluten protein components can be determined by amino acid analysis, for example, after oxidation with performic acid, but a distinction between cysteine and cystine is not possible by this method (6) groups can be determined spectrophotometrically prior to and after reduction according to the methods of Ellman (7) and Henschen (8). The identification and localization of cysteine and cystine residues are, however, only possible after labeling of SH groups and subsequent partial enzymatic hydrolysis of gluten proteins and sequence analysis of the relevant peptides (6,9).…”

“…(), on average the concentration of free ‐SH groups of gluten samples amounted 2.10 μmol g −1 protein. In addition, Antes & Wieser () reported the variation of free ‐SH groups of bread wheat flour in the range of 1.0–1.5 μmol g −1 , where approximately 30% of them could be assigned to the glutenins. A lower concentration of free ‐SH groups in investigated bread and durum flours (ranged from 0.4 to 0.7 nmol mg −1 and from 0.6 to 0.7 nmol mg −1 , respectively) than those aforementioned might be explained either by the differences originating from varieties and/or by different employed growing conditions of varieties.…”
