What is Vital Wheat Gluten CAS 8002-80-0?

Gluten is essentially a natural protein extracted from wheat flour through a washing process. When flour and water are mixed, the two main proteins—glutenin and gliadin—combine to form a viscoelastic network structure called gluten. After washing away starch and other components, the remaining gelatinous substance is dried and pulverized to obtain gluten.
