Corn oil (North American) or maize oil (British) is oil extracted from the germ of corn (maize). Its main use is in cooking, where its high smoke point makes refined corn oil a valuable frying oil. It is also a key ingredient in some margarines. Corn oil is generally less expensive than most other types of vegetable oils. Corn oil is also a feedstock used for biodiesel. Other industrial uses for corn oi
Bioactive Phytochemicals from Corn (Zea mays) Germ Oil
The main industrial applications of corn include (i) oil production, which is predominant in the germ fraction, about up to 85% of the total corn grain oil [2, 12]; (ii) starch production that is produced from the starchy endosperm (~70% of dry matter) [13, 14]; and (iii) fuel production from the conversion of starch to ethanol using biotechnological processes [].

Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil using
Introduction. Corn germ is a substantial byproduct of the wet milling and alcohol industry of corn. Corn germ (dry) contains 35?6 % oil, with linoleic acid (C18:2) being the predominant fatty acid (49?1.9 %) and the highest level of tocopherol and phytosterol amongst all vegetable oils, which is a cost-effective resource for healthy nutritious oil.
