Corn phytochemicals and their health benefits
Corn oil is rich in phytosterols, 56 to 60% of phytosterols in corn oil occur as steryl esters, while esterified sterol content is much lower in other vegetable oils [71]. The majority of vegetable oils contain 1–5 g/kg of plant sterols, while corn oil contains 5.13 to 9.79 g/kg of plant sterols [ 72 ].
Introduction. Edible plant oil (EPO) is obtained from the seeds, pulps, fruits, and plumules of certain plants. As one of the three major energy resources for human life activities, EPO is majorly used in cooking, but also used in a small amount for cosmetics, health supplement capsules, and other purposes.
Supporting Agricultural Productivity in Burundi (PAPAB) – IFDC
Supporting Agricultural Productivity in Burundi (PAPAB) PAPAB (2015-2019) aimed to sustainably increase food production in Burundi by promoting market-oriented, climate-resilient, and sustainable agricultural techniques, supported by targeted fertilizer subsidies. The project was funded by the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
Siger et al. studied total phenolic contents of several plant oils, and they determined 1.48, 1.31, 1.20, 1.26, 0.51 and 2.46 mg CAE/100 g total phenol in soybean, rapeseed, sunflower, corn and pumpkin oils, respectively.

1. Introduction Phytosterols are plant-derived sterols that have similar physiological functions with cholesterol in vertebrate animals [1,2].More than 100 types of phytosterols and 4000 other types of triterpenes have been found according to the literature []. β-Sitosterol, campesterol, stigmasterol, brassicasterol, and ∆5-avenasterol are the main phytosterols in plants [].
Antioxidant properties of the methanolic extracts of cold-pressed oils such as soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, corn, grapeseed, hemp, flax, rice bran and pumpkin were studied. The methanolic extracts were obtained by solid phase extraction and separation, and identification of phenolic acids was conducted by high-performance liquid chromatography.
Corn ( Zea mays L.) Growth, Yield and Nutritional Properties Affected by Fertilization Methods and Micronutrient Use, Springer
With respect to the significance of finding methods, which may improve corn (Zea mays L.) yield and quality in the semi-arid areas of the world, an improved method and type of fertilization has been suggested and tested. A two-year field experiment (2016–2017) (split plot) was conducted in the Research Station of Safi-Abad, Dezful, Iran to test the effects of fertilization methods (soil
Figure 2. Total corn N, P, K, Mg, S, Zn uptake and partitioning across four plant stover fractions for corn averaging 230 bushels/acre. Contrary to nutrients like N and K, nutrient accumulation of P, S, Zn, and Cu is equally distributed between vegetative growth and during reproductive growth (i.e., ear development and grain-fill) .
Effects of Foliar NPK Application on Growth, Yield and Nutrient Content of Sweet Corn Grown on Rengam Series Soil
The macro and micronutrient concentrations in ear leaf, mature leaves, stem, cob, and flowers of 75 and 100% NPK treated corn were significantly increased over the control plants.
Fermentation helps to improve the nutrient levels of oil cake, because during the process a microbial synthesis of biomolecules takes place. Following this idea, Stodolak et al. [ 132 ] observed that in flaxseed oil cake fermented for 48 h with Rhizopus oligosporus DSM 1964 and/or ATTC 6403 there was an increase of 13–85% in phenolic levels and a decrease in scavenging activity by 20–30%.
