  • 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...
  • Can oil and protein extracts be recovered from corn germ?
  • Oil and proteins were successfully recovered from corn germ by a biorefinery scheme. Oil extraction yield and TPC of oils were influenced by the polarity of solvents. The protein content of recovered extracts ranged from 20 to 48%. The functionality of protein extracts depended on the defatting pretreatment.
  • What fatty acids are in corn germ oil?
  • The main fatty acids in corn germ oil are linoleic (39¨C63%), oleic (20¨C42%), and palmitic (9¨C17%) . According to the same authors, several methods are used for the recovery of corn germ oil, such as pressing, solvent, extraction of aqueous, enzymatic, and supercritical fluid.
