FAQ

  • QHow to extract corn germ oil in semi-batch process?
    AThe 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.
  • QDoes corn germ oil contain sterol?
    AThe contents of sterol, tocopherol and carotene from the oils of corn germ and bran. As a kind of high-quality vegetable oil, corn germ oil has been studied for many years by using lots of extraction methods including pressing extraction, Soxhlet extraction, organic solvent extraction, supercritical CO 2 and aqueous enzymatic [124, 125, 132–134].
  • QCan you provide more information about production and quote the best price?
    AOf course, but first we have to confirm your needs. According to your needs, we will choose the right product for your reference. When we determine one or several products, we will quote you the best price.
  • QHow to extract oil from corn germ during flour processing?
    AThis 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.
  • QHow is corn oil extracted?
    AIn the process of corn oil extraction, the germ passes through conditioning operations (heating, humidification and extrusion), to then be submitted to oil extraction by expeller (pre-pressing) and solvent extraction, with hexane being the solvent chosen by processors ( Moreau, 2005 ).
  • QCan hexane extract be used to extract corn germ oil?
    AExtraction with subcritical propane resulted in corn germ oils with properties similar to those obtained in classic extraction procedures using hexane. However, both propane and hexane extracts had lower total phenolic content and antioxidant activity compared with Soxhlet extraction with ethanol or ethyl acetate.
  • QWhat is the extraction yield of corn germ oil?
    AThe highest extraction yield with propane was 38.4?±?1.2 wt% at 20 °C, 20 bar, 30 min and 0.95 mm particle size. Corn germ oil is widely used for culinary preparation because of its pleasant and slightly sweet taste.
