  • 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.
  • Does Tempering degerming reduce endosperm fractions in corn germ-bran mixture?
  • The tempering-degerming process implemented to achieve the corn germ-bran mixture may let more endosperm fractions attached to the germ than the dry mechanical degerming and bran separation implemented by Castelmais. 3.2. Oil recovery and characterization Table 1 summarizes data of yields and oil composition for the different extraction methods.
  • What is the extraction method of corn germ protein?
  • The extraction method of corn germ protein is mainly the alkaline extraction method, which is a very common method for extracting vegetable protein.
  • How can biotechnology improve the value of corn processing products?
  • For instance, modern biotechnology (efficient enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation technology) and separation and purification technology need to be developed to increase the added value of corn processing products and reduce environment pollution.
