Forty‐three yellow dent corn samples of five different hybrids varying in test weight and moisture content were obtained from 14 different locations in 1993. The locations for acquired samples were selected randomly to cover a wide range of test weights based on preliminary data from eight states of the corn belt where 94% of the U.S. corn crop was produced in 1993. Samples were wet‐milled using a 100‐g standard laboratory‐scale wet‐milling procedure. Protein content in starch and starch viscosity were determined. Starch yield, protein content in starch, and starch viscosity were not affected significantly by test weight. 相似文献

Two corn hybrids (3394 and 33R87) were steeped with three sulfite salts and five acids to test the effect of sulfur dioxide (SO2) source and acid sources on wet‐milling yields and starch properties. Milling yields from each treatment were compared with a control sample that was steeped with 2,000 ppm of SO2 (using sodium metabisulfite) and 0.55% lactic acid. Sulfur dioxide sources were potassium sulfite, sodium sulfite, and ammonium sulfite; acids were acetic, hydrochloric, oxalic, phosphoric, and sulfuric. Starch yields were affected by the SO2 source and steep acids but the effects were hybrid‐dependent. Different steep acids gave different starch yields when wet milled at the same pH. Among the acids tested, weak acids (lactic and acetic) tended to give higher starch yields compared with strong acids (hydrochloric, sulfuric, phosphoric, and oxalic). Some differences were observed with different sulfite salts and acids on starch pasting properties; however, there were no clear trends. 相似文献

The effects of maturity on grain quality and wet‐milling properties were investigated for two hybrids of corn. Significant differences for hybrid and maturity were observed for all grain quality parameters. Test weight, absolute density, and thousand‐grain weight all increased as the corn matured. Kernel hardness increased and breakage susceptibility varied with increased maturity. Water uptake parameters decreased with maturity of the grain. The starch yield results from wet milling showed that the starch yield increased significantly within each cultivar in the early stages of grain maturity, but there were no significant differences between hybrids. Mathematical models using selected grain quality parameters accurately predicted trends in starch yield for the immature and mature corn samples in this study. 相似文献

Reducing corn steep time by adding lactic acid instead of relying on in situ fermentation was studied. Corn at two initial moisture levels (15 and 20%) was steeped for 18 hr in a countercurrent steep system. The initial SO2 target concentration in steepwater was 2,000 or 3,000 ppm, while the initial lactic acid concentration in steepwater was 0, 0.28, or 0.55%. Adding lactic acid under all steeping conditions decreased steepwater pH, accelerated SO2 absorption, and increased the amount of solids released from corn. Adding lactic acid during steeping also increased the first grind slurry density and made germ skimming easier than when no lactic acid was added. Starch yields for the hybrid used in this study under all steep conditions were comparable to those from 24‐hr steeping, except when steeping corn with an initial moisture content of 15% in ≈2,000 ppm of SO2 alone. For the 20% moisture corn, adding lactic acid to fresh steepwater significantly improved the starch yield at ≈2,000 ppm of SO2 for 18‐hr steeping. At ≈3,000 ppm of SO2, adding lactic acid did not increase the starch yield for the hybrid used. The protein content in starch was significantly lower when lactic acid was added. Pasting properties of starch were not affected by adding lactic acid. The hybrid used in this study had an initial moisture content of 20% and could be wet‐milled without affecting starch yield, starch protein content, and pasting properties. 相似文献

Recently, we reported the development of an enzymatic corn wet‐milling process that reduces or eliminates sulfur dioxide requirements during steeping, considerably reduces steep time, and produces starch yields comparable to that of conventional corn wet‐milling. The best results so far, using the enzymatic corn wet‐milling procedure, were achieved when a particular protease enzyme (bromelain) was used. In this study, pasting properties and surface characteristics of starch obtained from six different enzyme treatments (three glycosidases [β‐glucanase, cellulase, and xylanase] and three proteases [pepsin, acid protease, and bromelain]) using the enzymatic corn wet‐milling procedure were evaluated and compared with those from starch obtained using the conventional corn wet‐milling procedure. Significant effects from enzymatic milling were observed on all the three starch pasting properties (peak, shear thinning, and setback). The setback viscosities of starch from all enzyme treatments were significantly lower compared with those of the control sample, indicating that starch polymers from enzymatic corn wet‐milling do not reassociate to the same extent as with the control. Comparison between bromelain treatment and the control sample showed that starch samples obtained from bromelain treatment are very similar to control starch in water‐binding capacity, molecular breakdown, and time to swell when cooked in water. Significant effects from enzymatic milling were observed on the surface characteristics of starch granules. The glycosidase treatments, especially the β‐glucanase samples, showed holes in the starch granules. No visual differences were observed in starch granules between bromelain and control samples. 相似文献

Several coproducts result from fractionating corn in the wet‐milling process. Because small changes in product composition and milling characteristics can have a major impact on coproduct yields and values, testing is done to anticipate final product yields. Using small sample size and controlled conditions, a laboratory wet‐milling method proved to be a useful tool for wet milling and genetics industries. A wet‐milling process (100‐g batches) was used for data collection. Data collected during 11 years (1994–2004) were observed for samples used as benchmarks to verify process precision and accuracy and determine correlations among wet‐milling yields. More than 400 milling tests were performed on benchmark samples. Data from benchmark samples also were pooled. Coefficients of variation were low (<6%) for mean yields; year‐to‐year standard deviations of benchmark sample yield means were homogenous and implied precision of the procedure. Some differences were detected in mean yields among years (P ≤ 0.05) for benchmark data due to combined effects of hybrid and environment. A negative correlation (r = –0.58) was observed between starch and gluten yield for pooled benchmark data. Four years (2002–2005) of milling data from commercially available hybrids were analyzed using the milling procedure. For pooled commercial data, the correlation between starch and fiber yield was (r = –0.80); correlation between starch and gluten was (r = –0.76). 相似文献

To better understand the role of lactic acid (LA) in corn wet‐milling, steeping studies were performed on different yellow dent corn hybrids using four different solutions containing LA, sulfur dioxide (SO2), a combination of LA and SO2, or no added chemicals. Although there was variation in protein solubilization among the hybrids, protein release was consistently higher when LA was included in the steepwater than when it was excluded (both with and without SO2). Several groups have reported that starch recoveries are improved when steepwater contains LA. To explore the relationship between protein solubilization and starch yield as effected by LA, several yellow dent hybrids were steeped in 0.20% SO2 and 0.50% LA‐0.20% SO2 solutions and milled to recover starch by a 100‐g laboratory corn wet‐milling procedure. In all instances, both starch yields and protein solubilization were enhanced in solutions containing LA. These results support the hypothesis that direct dissolution of the endosperm protein matrix by LA contributes to the improved starch recoveries. 相似文献

The effects of harvest moistures and frozen storage times on corn wet‐milling yields and the pasting properties of the resulting starch were studied. Pioneer hybrid P‐0916‐XR harvested at three moisture contents (49, 35, and 21% wb) were stored frozen for three days or for five months, followed by wet‐milling. The pasting properties of the resulting starch were evaluated with a Rapid Visco Analyzer. The yields of starch and germ increased by 1.2 and 1.9 percentage points, respectively, when harvest moisture decreased from 49 to 21% wb, whereas the yields of steep water solids, total fiber, and gluten decreased by 2.1, 0.7, and 0.6 percentage points, respectively. The frozen corn had lower coarse fiber yields but higher cellular fiber yields. The starch pasting properties showed that peak and breakdown viscosities decreased by 8% (3,824 ± 36 versus 3,520 ± 38 cP) and 13% (2,336 ± 47 versus 2,029 ± 60 cP), respectively, when harvest moisture decreased from 49 to 21% wb, whereas peak time increased by 5% (6.32 ± 0.06 versus 6.62 ± 0.07 min). The setback and final viscosities of starch from long‐term frozen storage (five months) were 14% (1,574 ± 65 versus 1,828 ± 79 cP) and 8% (3,063 ± 27 versus 3,317 ± 101 cP) lower, respectively, than that from control (unfrozen) corn. 相似文献

Corn breeders have developed hybrids with enhanced compositional characteristics, but exotic germplasm represents little of the germplasm base used to produce these hybrids. Effects of the exotic germplasm on physical, compositional, and wet‐milling properties as well as the proximate composition of recovered fractions need to be determined before these materials are of value to the corn processing industry. Ten lines from the Germplasm Enhancement of Maize (GEM) project with exotic germplasm introgressed from Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Cuba, and Florida were crossed to three adapted inbred lines (testers) and grain from the resulting 30 hybrids were evaluated for physical, compositional, and wet‐milling characteristics and the expression of heterosis in these variables. The B73xMo17 adapted public hybrid was used as control. Grain obtained by self‐pollination of the hybrid plants was analyzed using near‐infrared transmittance (NIT) technology and a 100‐g wet‐milling procedure. There was great variation among physical, compositional, and wet‐milling characteristics, and some of the experimental hybrids with exotic origin had better starch yield and starch recovery than B73xMo17, which suggests that wet‐milling characteristics of U.S. hybrids can be improved by breeding with exotic germplasm. In particular, GEM breeding crosses AR16035:S19, CH05015:N15, CUBA117:S1520, and FS8B(T):N1802 could be valuable germplasm sources to produce inbreds with good milling properties. Testers varied in ability to produce hybrids with good milling properties, indicating that choice of tester is an important factor when evaluating this end use. Although general trait trends for mid‐ and high‐parent heterosis were revealed, individual variation among hybrids and testers was large for most traits. This demonstrates the importance of analyzing individual hybrids that are intended for the wet‐milling industry when breeding with exotic introgressed lines. 相似文献

A waxy spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotype was fractionated into flour and starch by roller and wet‐milling, respectively. The resultant flour and starch were evaluated for end‐use properties and compared with their counterparts from hard and soft wheats and with commercial waxy and nonwaxy corn (Zea mays L.) starches. The waxy wheat flour had exceptionally high levels of water absorption and peak viscosity compared with hard or soft wheat flour. The flour formed an intermediate‐strength dough that developed rapidly and was relatively susceptible to mixing. Analysis by differential scanning calorimetry and X‐ray diffractometry showed waxy wheat starch had higher gelatinization temperatures, a greater degree of crystallization, and an absence of an amylose‐lipid complex compared with nonwaxy wheat. Waxy wheat and corn starches showed greater refrigeration and freeze‐thaw stabilities than did nonwaxy starches as demonstrated by syneresis tests. They were also similar in pasting properties, but waxy wheat starch required lower temperature and enthalpy to gelatinize. The results show analogies between waxy wheat and waxy corn starches, but waxy wheat flour was distinct from hard or soft wheat flour in pasting and mixing properties. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to compare the structure and properties of flours and starches from whole, broken, and yellowed rice kernels that were broken or discolored in the laboratory. Physicochemical properties including pasting, gelling, thermal properties, and X‐ray diffraction patterns were determined. Structure was elucidated using high‐performance size‐exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) and high‐performance anion‐exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC‐PAD). The yellowed rice kernels contained a slightly higher protein content and produced a significantly lower starch yield than did the whole or broken rice kernels. Flour from the yellowed rice kernels had a significantly higher pasting temperature, higher Brabender viscosities, increased damaged starch content, reduced amylose content, and increased gelatinization temperature and enthalpy compared with flours from the whole or the broken rice kernels. However, all starches showed similar pasting, gelling, thermal properties, and X‐ray diffraction patterns, and no structural differences could be detected among different starches by HPSEC and HPAEC‐PAD. α‐Amylase may be responsible for the decreased amylopectin fraction, decreased apparent amylose content, and increased amounts of low molecular weight saccharides in the yellowed rice flour. The increased amount of reducing sugars from starch hydrolysis promoted the interaction between starch and protein. The alkaline‐soluble fraction during starch isolation is presumed to contribute to the difference in pasting, gelling, and thermal properties among whole, broken, and yellowed rice flours. 相似文献

Starch was isolated from 95 sorghum landraces from Zimbabwe using an alkali steep and wet‐milling procedure. The physicochemical properties of sorghum starch were examined for potential use in Southern Africa. All the landraces evaluated had a normal endosperm indicated by the amylose content of the starches. Starch properties were not correlated to most of the physical grain quality traits evaluated. Grain hardness was weakly correlated to starch gel adhesiveness (r = 0.36) and amylose content (r = 0.38) (P < 0.001). The mean peak viscosity (PV) of the sorghum starches was 324 Rapid Visco Analyser units (RVU) compared with 238 RVU in a commercial corn starch sample; PV was 244–377 RVU. Some landraces had low shear‐thinning starches, implying good paste stability under hot conditions. Pasting properties were highly correlated among the sorghum starches. The starch gel hardness showed considerable variation (44–71 g) among the landraces. Gelatinization peak temperatures were 66–70°C. The thermal properties of starches were not correlated with starch swelling and pasting properties. Genotype grouping by highest and lowest values in each category would allow selection of sorghums based on a specific attribute depending on the desired end use. 相似文献

The use of corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids with high grain yield and starch extractability has steadily increased in the processing industry. In light of widespread corn seed industry participation in the Germplasm Enhancement of Maize Project (GEM), which seeks to enhance exotic germplasm, future hybrids may contain more exotic sources in genetic backgrounds. It is necessary to establish and monitor physical, compositional, and milling characteristics of the new exotic breeding materials to determine the processing value. The present study was conducted to determine the wet‐milling characteristics of a set of GEM lines compared with typical Corn Belt lines. Ten GEM lines introgressed with exotic materials from Argentina, Chile, Cuba, Florida, and Uruguay and previously identified as having different starch yields, three commercial inbred lines, and two public inbred lines (B73 and Mo17) were analyzed using both near‐infrared transmittance (NIT) and a 100‐g wet‐milling procedure. There were statistical differences (P < 0.05) in the yield of wet‐milled fractions (starch, fiber, gluten, and germ). The GEM lines AR16035:S19‐227‐1‐B and CUBA117:S1520‐562‐1‐B had similar or better starch yield and starch recovery than B73 and the other adapted inbred lines, indicating that they may be useful in improving the proportion of extractable starch present in kernels of hybrids. Residual protein levels in the starch and gluten fractions were 0.26–0.32% and 38–45%, respectively. The starch yield of GEM lines from wet milling correlated positively with starch content from NIT and was negatively correlated with protein content of the corn kernels. Oil content in the germ varied from 50 to 60%. Our results indicate that incorporating GEM lines in a breeding program can maintain or even improve wet‐milling characteristics of Corn Belt materials if lines with appropriate traits are used. 相似文献

A small‐scale (100 g of grain) procedure was developed to wet‐mill grain sorghum into six fractions by modifying the procedure of Eckhoff et al (1996). The wet‐milling process was repeated five times on commercial grain sorghum, and the mean yield (69.4%) of starch (≤0.3% protein) varied by 0.3%, whereas the yields of fiber, gluten, and germ plus bran fractions varied by 5–6%. The starch fraction accounted for ≈95% of that in the grain, while the total solids recovered was 99.0%. Four other samples of grain sorghum gave 92–95% recoveries of starches and 98.2–99.8% recoveries of total solids. All grain sorghum starches had lightness (L*) values and pasting curves nearly equal to those of a commercial maize starch. 相似文献

Corn hybrids were compared to determine the fate of recombinant Bt protein (CRY1Ab from Bacillus thuringiensis) in coproducts from dry grind and wet‐milled corn during production of fuel ethanol. Two pairs of Bt and non‐Bt hybrids were wet milled, and each fraction was examined for the presence of the Bt protein. Bt protein was found in the germ, gluten, and fiber fractions of Bt hybrids. In addition, one set of Bt and non‐Bt hybrids were treated by the dry‐grind ethanol process and Bt protein was monitored during each step of the process. The Bt protein was not detected after liquefaction. Subsequent experiments determined that the Bt protein is rapidly denatured at liquefaction temperatures. Finally, five hybrids were compared for ethanol yield after dry grinding. Analysis of fermentation data with an F‐test revealed the percent of total starch available for conversion into ethanol varied significantly among the hybrids (P < 0.002), indicating ethanol yield is not exclusively dependent on starch content. No difference, however, was observed between Bt and non‐Bt corn hybrids for either ethanol productivity or yield. 相似文献

Raw material variability is common for starch processors and is responsible for increased processing costs. In this study, variability of starch acetylation due to hybrid influence was quantified. Six waxy corn (maize) hybrids from 1998 and five waxy corn hybrids from 1999 were wet‐milled in the laboratory. Starch obtained from each hybrid was modified according to a laboratory‐scale acetylation procedure. To evaluate reaction efficiency, reaction rate, acetyl content, pH, and amount of NaOH used were recorded for each reaction. After modification, a Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) was used to characterize modified starches and determine differences in modified starches from different hybrids. Using the same acetylation protocol, reaction efficiencies were observed at 47–73%. Reaction efficiencies were significantly lower for 1998 hybrids (50.0%) compared with the efficiency observed for the same hybrids grown in 1999 (62.7%). Acetylated starch from 1999 had increased peak, trough and final viscosities and increased reaction efficiency as compared with acetylated starch from 1998. Differences in setback were observed among 1998 hybrids for acetylated samples. Differences in trough and final viscosity were observed among 1999 hybrids for acetylated and native (unmodified) samples. Differences in breakdown among 1999 hybrids also were observed for native samples. 相似文献

Hybrids with high grain yield and higher starch, protein, or oil content are available to corn growers; however, they result from crossing adapted Corn Belt inbred lines that rarely include exotic germplasm. This study was conducted to determine whether Corn Belt lines introgressed with exotic materials from Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Cuba, and Florida have appropriate wet‐milling characteristics in their hybrids. Ten lines from the Germplasm Enhancement of Maize (GEM) project with different starch contents were crossed to three adapted inbred lines used as testers. The B73×Mo17 hybrid was used as a control. The F1 generation of these 30 experimental hybrids was analyzed using both near‐infrared transmittance (NIT) technology and a 100‐g modified wet‐milling procedure, and measuring test and 1,000‐kernel weight. There was great variation among physical, compositional, and wet‐milling characteristics of the experimental hybrids, suggesting that exotic germplasm can be used to improve wet‐milling characteristics of Corn Belt hybrids. 相似文献

One waxy and three regular yellow dent corn hybrids were wet milled by using two scales of laboratory procedures (modified 100-g and 1-kg) and a pilot-plant procedure (10-kg). The modified 100-g and 1-kg laboratory procedures gave similar yields of wet-milling fractions. Starch yields and recoveries were significantly lower for the pilot-plant procedure, whereas gluten and fiber yields were greater because of their high contents of unrecovered starch. Protein contents of the starches obtained by all three procedures were within commercially acceptable limits (<0.50% db for normal dent corn and <0.30% for waxy corn). Rankings for starch yields and starch recoveries for the four hybrids, having very different physical and compositional properties, were the same for all three procedures. The harder the grain, the lower the yield and recovery of starch. Least significant differences (P < 0.05) for starch yield were 0.8% for the modified 100-g procedure, 1.2% for the 1-kg procedure, and 2.0% for the pilot-plant procedure. 相似文献

Forty‐nine accessions used in the Germplasm Enhancement of Maize (GEM) project, two commercial hybrids (Pioneer Brand Hybrids 3394 and 3489), and two Corn Belt inbreds (B73 and Mo17) were evaluated for compositional, physical, and wet‐milling properties. GEM accessions had lower starch contents (65.9–69.1% vs. a mean of 72.2% for the commercial hybrids) and greater protein contents (12.0–14.4% vs. a mean of 8.2% for the commercial hybrids) than did the improved Corn Belt material. Absolute densities were consistently higher for the GEM accessions compared with the commercial hybrids (1.320 vs. 1.265 g/cm3, respectively). The wet‐milling characteristics of the GEM accessions were not nearly as good as for the commercial hybrids. Mean starch yields were only 54.3% for the GEM accessions versus 64.8% for the commercial hybrids. Residual protein levels in the starches recovered from the GEM accessions were much greater (0.45–2.03%) than for commercial corn hybrids (<0.3%). 相似文献

The influence of albumin on the pasting and rheological properties of rice flour was investigated. Albumin was removed from the flour of three rice cultivars (Amaroo, Opus, and Langi) by water extraction and the pasting profile of the albumin‐depleted flour was analyzed using the Rapid ViscoAnalyser (RVA). Removal of albumin resulted in a significant (P < 0.5) decline in all the pasting parameters measured. When the extracted albumin was added to pure rice starch, exactly opposite trends occurred. The concentration of albumin in rice starch had a positive linear relationship with all pasting parameters measured. When the gels formed after RVA analyses were analyzed using the TA‐TX2 texture analyzer, the concentration of albumin had a positive linear relationship with hardness, but a near linear negative relationship with adhesiveness. The presence of albumin in rice starch slowed the uptake of water by starch in the initial stages of cooking, but the water uptake accelerated in later stages, and the final water absorption was higher in the samples containing albumin than in pure starch. The water‐soluble nature of albumin suggests that protein‐water‐starch interactions could be responsible for its effect on the physical properties of rice. 相似文献
