The baking properties of several genotypes of U.S. hard wheats grown in state nurseries for the Wheat Quality Council (WQC) were analyzed by the Hard Winter Wheal Quality Laboratory. Flours (250 mg) from each individual line and location were extracted three times with 50% 1-propanol (I mt) for 5 min each. Samples were vortexed continually during extraction. This method was effective in removing most monomeric proteins. Negligible detectable protein was found in the third extract. Significant amounts of polymeric glutenin were also extracted. Pellets were oven-dried (130 degrees C) for 1 hr and analyzed for protein content using nitrogen combustion analysis. Protein remaining in the pellet consisted mainly of polymeric protein. The amount of gliadin and soluble polymeric protein could also be measured by separating the supernatant by size-exclusion chromatography. Good correlations between dough strength parameters and amounts of pellet protein and the relative amount of pellet protein (pellet protein/flour protein) were found for all samples. This procedure was simple and rapid, with the potential of analyzing large numbers of samples per day with good reproducibility.
