Oxidation of commercial (a-type) zein with hydrogen peroxide improves its hydration and dramatically increases dough extensibility even below its glass transition temperature

To improve the rheological properties of zein doughs, a-type zein and zein-starch doughs were prepared with the oxidising agents, hydrogen peroxide and peroxidase, which strengthen gluten-based doughs by cross-linking. Hydrogen peroxide and peroxidase increased zein dough extensibility compared to p...
