We study the efficiency of several asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) techniques to investigate self-associating wheat gluten proteins. We compare the use of a denaturing buffer including sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and a mild chaotropic solvent, water/ethanol, as the eluent, on a model gluten sample. Through a thorough analysis of the data obtained from coupled light scattering detectors and with the identification of molecular composition of the eluted protein, we evidence coelution events in several conditions. We show that the focus step used in conventional AF4 with the SDS buffer leads to the formation of aggregates that coelute with monomeric proteins. By contrast, a frit-inlet device enables the fractionation of individual wheat proteins in the SDS buffer. Interestingly conventional AF4, using water/ethanol as eluent, is an effective method for fractionating gluten proteins and their complex dynamic assemblies, which involve weak forces and are composed of both monomeric and polymeric proteins.
