Understanding the role of gluten proteins in the biochemical and rheological properties of wheat and its products

Our research focus is in evaluating specialized biochemical and rheological properties of wheat cultivars with emphasis in gluten proteins and their role in key processing quality parameters of interest to the baking industry.  We work closely with the wheat breeders, cereal scientists and wheat industry around the world to provide wheat breeders with relevant information about the structure and behavior of doughs obtained from selected varieties and breeder lines.  We also seek to understand the basic properties of elasticity and plasticity of wheat dough and other cereal based products as a function of key quality parameters and other treatments of relevance to the industry, and to improve methods for the interpretation and prediction of baking and other processing properties relevant to present demands of customers and processors.
