Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil using aqueous ethanol solution assisted by steam explosion, Journal of Food Science
An improved aqueous extraction method has been established for extraction of oil from corn germs. This method primarily included steam explosion pretreatment and aqueous ethanol extraction. Process variables such as steam pressure, resident time, particle size and ethanol concentration were investigated. The highest yield of 93.74 % was obtained when ground steam-exploded corn germ (1.3 MPa
This work aimed the recovery of oil and protein fractions from corn germ (CG) generated as a by-product during flour processing. Several oil extraction techniques were investigated: hexane at room temperature, hexane at 45 C, supercritical carbon dioxide (Sc-CO 2) and Soxhlet with hexane and ethanol.
The Corn Refining Process
The corn wet milling process separates corn into its four basic components: starch, germ, fiber, and protein. There are five basic steps to accomplish this process. First the incoming corn is inspected and cleaned. Then it is steeped for 30 to 40 hours to begin breaking the starch and. protein bonds. The next step in the process involves a
As an important food crop, corn has an important impact on people’s lives. The processing of corn produces many by-products, such as corn gluten meal, corn husk, and corn steep liquor, which are rich in protein, oil, carbohydrates, and other nutrients, all of which are inexpensive. Their accumulation in large quantities during the production
Our Experiences in Processing Maize (Corn) Germ Oil
The important influence onth quality of hecrude oil. In our increase in use of corn oilas salad andcooking oil, and in experience, wet milled g rm must beprocessed by prepress-margarine, is due to the awareness of the importance of ing extraction. Some large starch factories also have final polyunsaturated fatty acids inthe diet, its tocopherol
Corn oil processing by-product has a crude protein around 10.6 g 100 g −1 mainly with methionine, lysine, and tryptophan amino acids, the crude fiber of 4.6 g 100 g −1, and lipids of 1.34 g 100 g −1 primarily with linoleic and palmitic fatty acids.
Molecules | Free Full-Text | Activity and Characterization of Tocopherol Oxidase in Corn Germs and Its Relationship with Oil Color Reversion, MDPI
Color reversion has long been a major problem for the vegetable oil industry, and the enzymatic oxidation of γ-tocopherol is thought to trigger this phenomenon. In this study, first, the extraction, purification, and detailed characterization of tocopherol oxidase from fresh corn germs were performed. Then, the relationship between the enzyme reaction of γ-tocopherol and oil color reversion
Corn germ oil refinement using high vacuum steam blanching. The use of a vacuum pump provides high-pressure vacuum steam for blenching and deodorization of 755mmHg. The blenched clay is dried by the air compressor, the clay is filtered by the air press, and the steam generator generates steam for distillation. The obtained edible corn germ oil
