Unlocking the potential of minimally processed corn germ oil
In this study, the influence of sunflower wax (SFX) concentration (1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 wt%) on the properties of oleogels prepared using expeller-pressed corn germ oil (EPC) or high oleic soybean oil (EPS) was comprehensively investigated. Overall, oleogels can be
Bioactive Phytochemicals from Corn (Zea mays) Germ Oil Processing
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 [].
Improving soybean production in Kenya using digital
In Kenya, soybean is a key crop in helping to improve livelihoods and nutrition. However, production only meets 10% of the market needs due to the effects of
Corn Oil: Composition, Processing, and Utilization - ScienceDirect
Most of the commercial corn oil is extracted from the germ and this is commonly known as 渃orn germ oil.?The germ from wet-milling operations (see Chapter 18) is recovered with up to 50% oil, which must be quickly processed because of its low microbiological and chemical stability.

Activity and Characterization of Tocopherol Oxidase in Corn Germs
soybean oil requiring only a few hours for the process to occur, whereas other oils requir e several months [ 1 , 5 ]. Given its notorious in铿倁ence on the oil industry , oil color reversion has
The mycotoxins in edible oils: An overview of prevalence
Palm, soybean, olive, sunflower, corn, and rapeseed are important sources for producing edible oil (Ahmed et al., 2021, pp. 99–126). After harvesting and during
Phytosterols in edible oil: Distribution, analysis and ... - ScienceDirect
Phytosterols are widely distributed in plant sources, especially oil seeds like corn, soybean and rapeseed. They are well known for their various bioactive properties, such as reducing intestinal cholesterol absorption and potential contributions to the prevention of cancer, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases [[1], [2], [3]].
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)
Corn Germ - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
The dried germ contains about 50% oil, in which the oil constitutes about 85% of the total amount of oil present in the corn. The oil is produced by first expelling the germ and then extracting the expeller cake with n -hexane. Global annual corn production is 700 million tonnes but corn oil production is only 400 000 tonnes.
