3 M urea has been shown to cause considerable, and only partially reversible conformational changes of gluten molecules. Homogenization has proved to act mechanically, breaking down some molecular bonds. No structural changes could be observed during freeze drying gluten, as well as after brief heating of its acetic acid extracts
