Problems solved by technology

This method uses petroleum ether for extraction, which will cause toxic and harmful chemicals to remain in zein and zeaxanthin, and the obtained zein has a yellow color and low quality, and cannot reach the international market. requirements
In the above-mentioned methods, since the pigment in zein cannot be completely removed, the color of the extracted zein is yellowish, the product quality is not ideal, and the chroma does not meet the application requirements of the international market, which greatly reduces the utilization rate. value, making the application of zein in medicine and food limited

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for continuously extracting and separating maize yellow pigment and zein from maize protein meal with high yield and high quality, and belongs to the technical field of deep processing of the maize protein meal. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out degreasing with n-hexane, carrying out extraction in an opaque background with ultrasonic waves, and carrying out centrifugation to obtain supernate and filter residue; conducting vacuum concentration on the supernate to obtain red oily maize yellow pigment; conducting enzymolysis and starch removal treatment on the filter residue with alpha-amylase and beta-glycosidase, and carrying out microwave extraction and centrifugation to obtain a zein extract; adjusting the pH value of the zein extract to a protein isoelectric point, carrying out washing with water and precipitation to obtain wet zein powder, and carrying out vacuum freeze-drying to obtain a white zein product. The content of the corn yellow pigment in the product is 0.25mg / g to 0.29mg / g; the extraction rate is 86% to 94%; the protein content of the zein product is 90% to 93% by mass; the yield of zein is 39% to 46%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for continuously extracting and separating zeaxanthin and zein from corn gluten powder, and belongs to the technical field of deep processing of corn gluten powder. Background technique [0002] Corn is one of the three major food crops in the world and is recognized as a golden food. The current global production has exceeded 700 million tons. my country has a wide range of corn planting areas and areas. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2015, the national corn planting area was 38.2 million hectares (about 570 million mu), and the output could reach 229 million tons. Corn is widely used in the three major directions of livestock and poultry feed, food and intensive processing. Corn gluten meal is a by-product produced in the process of wet processing corn starch, with an annual output of about 2.2 million tons. Most corn starch manufacturers sell corn gluten meal as cheap feed, but ...
