Oil and protein recovery from corn germ: Extraction yield
The TPC values of oils extracted at 45 °C and boiling hexane are consistent with those reported by Shende and Sidhu (2015) for corn oil extracted by hexane (76 mg GAE/kg oil). The highest yield of extraction (37.7 g oil/100 g CG) was obtained by the Soxhlet ethanol method. The discrepancy between hexane and ethanol extraction yields is
Introduction. Corn germ is a substantial byproduct of the wet milling and alcohol industry of corn. Corn germ (dry) contains 35–56 % oil, with linoleic acid (C18:2) being the predominant fatty acid (49–61.9 %) and the highest level of tocopherol and phytosterol amongst all vegetable oils, which is a cost-effective resource for healthy nutritious oil.
Corn Oil: Composition, Processing, and Utilization
Corn oil is an excellent source of essential fatty acids, which typically exceed 60% of its total composition, with the main contribution of linoleic acid (C18:2) and percentages of α-linolenic acid (C18:3) lower than 1.5%. Therefore, it cannot be considered a source of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet.
In general, it is verified that corn oil processing by-product has a dry matter content of 89.0%, crude protein around 10.6%, the crude fiber of 4.6%, ether extract close to 1.34%, in addition to calcium, phosphorus, several amino acids such as methionine, lysine, and tryptophan [22, 23, 24].
Effect of Stored Humidity and Initial Moisture Content on the
The quality of corn germ oil is affected by the method of oil extraction, corn germ quality, etc. The effect of moisture and heat treatment of corn germ on oil quality was studied, results showing that increasing the moisture contents of the corn germ from 8 to 25% before oil extraction increased the acid values (3.02–4.01 mg KOH/g), peroxide
5.1. Corn Germ Oil. Corn germ oil is a nutritious and healthy edible oil. It has a transparent golden yellow color and a fragrant fragrance. It is called “liquid gold” by Western countries. Corn germ oil contains 80–85% of unsaturated fatty acids, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and α-linolenic acid. The content of linoleic acid is as high as
Bioactive Phytochemicals from Corn (Zea mays) Germ Oil
Corn germ oil (CGO) was recovered from the ground corn germ by maceration using n-hexane at the ranges of the temperature and the solvent:germ ratio (SGR) of 20–70 °C and 3:1–10:1 mL/g
Different compositions are veried for corn germ oil processing by-products, mainly due to the diversity of extraction processes to which the corn is submitted. In general, it is veried that corn oil processing by-product has a dry matter content of 89.0%, crude protein around 10.6%, the crude ber of 4.6%, ether extract close to
Front-end corn germ separation: Process variations
Background. The popularity of grain-based ethanol production, especially via dry-grind bioethanol from corn and subsequent accumulation of low-value coproducts, especially dried distillers grain with solubles (DDGS), has emphasized the need to add value to the process by recovering different corn components for potential food, feed, and industrial applications prior to ethanol fermentation.
Prospects of Maize (Corn) Wet Milling By-Products as a Source of Functional Food Ingredients and Nutraceuticals. Maize (corn) consists of distinct parts, germ, endosperm, and pericarp, with different chemical compositions. During the maize wet milling process, the maize is disintegrated into the main product….
- How to extract oil from corn germ during flour processing?
- 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.
- What is corn germ oil processing by-products?
- Corn (Zea mays L.) is one of the most relevant and cultivated cereals. During the processing of corn, especially in obtaining edible oil, large quantities of by-products are generated, called corn germ oil processing by-products. In this sense, this chapter provides...
- What is the oil yield from Steam exploded corn germ?
- Under the extraction conditions applied for the untreated germ, the oil yield from the steam-exploded corn germ increased to 88.51%. Corn germ soaking with citric acid (0.05 M) for 2 h at a solid-to-liquid ratio of 1:2 (w/v), followed by steam explosion results in an oil yield of 93.74%.
- What is the difference between n hexane extraction and corn germ oil recovery?
- Using this method, the obtained corn oil yield is greater than 90% of the oil content, whereas the oil yield obtained by n- hexane extraction is only 72%. The additional advantage of this process is the adsorption of the moisture from ethanol by the flaked corn, thus allowing the production of > 99% ethanol. 4.2. Corn germ oil recovery
