Not necessarily. While corn itself is gluten free, wheat flour is sometimes added in order to enhance the binding power of cornflour or corn meal for baking purposes. You should check the label to see if it specifically says "Gluten free". If it does not, check the ingredients carefully for any type of wheat product that may have been added.

Yes, but a celiac disease patient must use caution to ensure that the corn never came in contact with wheat, barley, or anything else containing gluten. In modern US grain milling facilities, this level of purity can be difficult to obtain. To be considered gluten-free, the food must be laboratory tested to have less than 20 parts per million of gluten.

Yes because Celiac Disease is only found in wheat (gluten). Corn is a grain that does not have wheat in it.

Is there gluten in corn flour?

For the most part there is no gluten in cornflour or corn flour - cornflour is milled maize (corn), also known as cornstarch in the US. Corn flour is ground maize (corn). Neither should contain gluten, however if they have not been exclusively processed (i.e. no other products are made on the production line), there may be small quantities of gluten in there. The best way to find out a brand of corn flour with no gluten in is to search on the internet and find one that advertises itself as gluten-free.
