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 35–56 % 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.
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. Their influence on oil yield and oil
Biodiesel production from corn oil: A review
Corn with an oil content level above 6% is designated 'high oil corn'. The corn germ is the most important part of the kernel for oil production. Corn germ contains 35–56% oil, linoleic acid being the most common fatty acid (49–61.9%) [23]. In addition, corn germ contains about 1–3% phosphatides, 1% sterols, and 1.5% FFAs.

Bioactive Phytochemicals from Corn (Zea mays) Germ Oil
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 ].
This paper discusses the properties and composition of corn oil. Influences of processing steps on oil quality are described, along with alkali and physical refining, degumming, bleaching, dewaxing, deacification-decodorization. A new method for wet degumming-bleaching and deacidification-deodorization is presented. Flowsheets and other data are given for a new 150 metric tons per day of corn
Development and Utilization of Corn Processing by-Products: A
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
To visualize the formation of oleogel, all the samples were placed upside down and were considered as oleogel if no oil flows down. As can be seen from the inserted picture in Fig. 1 B, all the samples successfully formed oleogels denoting that both refined corn oil and EP corn germ oil have the capability to form oleogel by RBX at a concentration of ≥ 3%.
Activity and Characterization of Tocopherol Oxidase in Corn
Color reversion has long been a major problem for the vegetable oil industry, and the enzymatic oxidation of γ-tocopherol is thought to trigger this phenomenon. In this study, first, the extraction, purification, and detailed characterization of tocopherol oxidase from fresh corn germs were performed. Then, the relationship between the enzyme reaction of γ-tocopherol and oil color reversion
Corn oil is extracted from the germ of the corn kernel and is rich in unsaturated fatty acids and vitamin E, which are essential in the human body (Aksoz et al., 2020; Zhao et al., 2020). This oil
