no, Wheat gluten, also called seitan, wheat meat, mock duck, gluten meat, or simply gluten, is a food made from gluten, the main protein of wheat. It is made by washing wheat flour dough with water until all the starch dissolves, leaving insoluble gluten as an elastic mass which is then cooked before being eaten.

Germ is not the same as gluten, but it contains gluten.

In any case, wheat products, even if handled carefully, are almost guaranteed to have gluten in them due to cross-contamination.
