| Abstract: | The study of the amino acid composition of tritikale gluten has demonstrated that in comparison with that of grain protein it contains much less aspartic acid (by 28.1%) and lysine (by 19.4%), less alanine and arginine but more tyrosine (by 39.7%), glutamic acid (by 31.4%), phenylalanine (by 23.6%) and leucine (by 14.4%) and slightly more threonine and valine. The study has shown no significant differences in the amino acid composition of grain protein and tritikale gluten of different varieties and cultivation regions. |
