Efficient and eco-friendly extraction of corn germ oil using aqueous
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.
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 ].
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.
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.
Corn Oil: Composition, Processing, and Utilization
Prospects of Maize (Corn) Wet Milling By-Products as a Source of Functional Food Ingredients and Nutraceuticals. Maize (corn) consists of distinct parts, germ, endosperm, and pericarp, with different chemical compositions. During the maize wet milling process, the maize is disintegrated into the main product….
The extraction of corn germ oil was evaluated using pressurized propane as solvent in semi-batch process as an alternative approach to organic solvent extraction. The effect of temperature (20, 40, 60 °C), pressure (20, 60, 100 bar), particle size and confinement time were studied. Moreover, the extraction kinetics for the pressurized solvent were determined. Temperature and pressure had no
Development and Utilization of Corn Processing by-Products: A Review
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

Determination and prediction of the digestible and metabolizable energy
INTRODUCTION. Corn germ meal (CGM) is produced during the process of germ extraction to produce corn oil for human consumption [].As a by-product of the oil industry, CGM could provide relative abundant protein and energy contents, which was firstly thought to be used in pet food to replace part of the more expensive corn and also a small portion of the soybean meal [].
Efforts to engineer high-productivity crops to accumulate oils in their vegetative tissue present the possibility of expanding biodiesel production. However, processing the new crops for lipid recovery and ethanol production from cell wall saccharides is challenging and expensive. In a previous study using corn germ meal as a model substrate, we reported that liquid hot water (LHW
