Popis: Soy protein isolate (SPI) and wheat gluten (WG) films can be cast from appropriate solvent systems. Such films can find use in edible or nonedible food packaging materials. The effect of pH of WG and SPI film-forming solutions on film formation, tensile strength (TS), percentage elongation at break (E), and water vapor permeability (WVP) win investigated. WG films formed within pH 2-4 and 9-13, wherein SPI films formed within pH 1-3 and 6-12. Film formation win inhibited by poor protein dispersion around the isoelectric pH region of SPI (pH 4.5) and WG (pH 1.6). SPI films prepared from pH 6 to 11 had significantly (P
