Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The gelling capacity is defined as the capacity per mass of protein to increase the G’ upon thermal treatment. Gel strength is defined as the elastic modulus after heat treatment. The end of the linear viscoelastic regime is defined as the strain at which the elastic modulus has decreased to 90% of its plateau value.

Detailed explanation-2: -Gels are materials composed of a three-dimensional crosslinked polymer or colloidal network immersed in a fluid. They are usually soft and weak, but can be made hard and tough. Hydrogels are gels that have water as their main constituent.
