Proposed merge of Transglutaminase and Meat Glue

Meat Glue ought to redirect here, to it's own section on culinary uses.207.140.171.5 (talk) 12:18, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Meat glue does not represent transglutaminase. Transgtlutaminase is a natural enzyme which has been existed in food materials. Vast majority of its function is used for other purpose. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sergioma (talk • contribs) 23:42, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well it looks like someone ignored you & did it anyway. & now it needs to be undone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.135.167.21 (talk) 04:36, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I totally agree, so I undid it. Clearly meat glue is deserving of its own article, since multiple compounds are used as meat glues, not just this one. —tooki (talk)<

Meat glue

Someone said that meat glue was banned. Today another editor has written the following:

A specific form of "meat glue" (thrombin) was banned by the European Union in May 2010 to alleviate the risk of misleading the consumer.^[1] However, thrombin is not a transglutaminase.

I think this means that transglutaminase is not banned, and therefore there is no point in discussing this here. JFW | T@lk 14:49, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Whoever is editing the "Regulatory aspects" section really needs to provide more citations. As Jfdwolff has pointed out, the EU has banned thrombin for use in meat products, not transglutaminase. This section is misleading. Also, a statement like "Use of animal derived transglutaminase products in cold or cooked meats increases contamination risks" requires a valid citation. Speculation from a TV news program is just that - speculation. Find a paper or a study and it'll be believable. Also, they're spelled "Listeria" and "E. coli." Italics and all. The fact that you haven't gotten those two things correct makes me question your authority on this subject. 74.67.50.219 (talk) 12:12, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is the news item related to the EU ban. It covers thrombin and fibrinogen, not transglutaminase. It is cited by the Australian news item. JFW | T@lk 15:55, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

let me get this straight. Meat glue redirects here and there is no mention of meat glue on the main page and on the talk page people deny that this is meat glue? Do I have the straight? So, does meat glue not exist or is someone suppressing it? If the latter do they realize that the issue for most popple it not its use but such suppression? 98.121.92.169 (talk) 03:12, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm with this guy. There are other meat glues & this article doesn't mention health risks or that people don't want the meat industry using them. Meat Glue needs to be it's own page & not redirect here.

This page is basically ruined. Yes there should be a page on meat glue and the associated controversy, but as there isn't and transglutaminase is a meat glue, at the very least under the section 'Industrial and culinary applications' there has to be a nod to the problem. That there isn't makes me very very suspicious. The first roll of wikipedia is to inform.Flagpolewiki (talk) 15:56, 10 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Transglutaminases create stable skin and hair. Additionally they are essential in proper clot formation - so, if one has low F13, would one expect to see weakness in skin and/or hair integrity???184.147.109.37 (talk) 05:59, 28 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
