pigment bleach<strong>in</strong>g has been previously reported. Hydrogen peroxide (used as part of oxidationsystem based on the Fenton’s system at a concentration of 0.03%) reduced more than 30% <strong>and</strong>60% (measured as loss of absorbance) of total lute<strong>in</strong> <strong>and</strong> zeaxanth<strong>in</strong>, respectively <strong>in</strong> a fivem<strong>in</strong>utereaction at 25°C (Woodall et al., 1997). Through the course of corn steep<strong>in</strong>g progression,steepwater penetrates (through the tip cap) <strong>and</strong> disperses with<strong>in</strong> different structural compartmentof the gra<strong>in</strong> (i.e. germ <strong>and</strong> endosperm) by the action of capillary forces (Krochta et al., 1981).Hydrogen peroxide <strong>in</strong>cluded <strong>in</strong> steepwater <strong>in</strong> this trial, probably <strong>in</strong>duced an oxidation processwith<strong>in</strong> corn endosperm, thus bleach<strong>in</strong>g yellow carotenoids from the gluten fraction <strong>and</strong>consequently reduc<strong>in</strong>g the carotenoid recovery <strong>in</strong> corn gluten meal.<strong>Corn</strong> variety significantly affected the bleach<strong>in</strong>g of all-trans lute<strong>in</strong>, all-trans zeaxanth<strong>in</strong> <strong>and</strong>all-trans β-cryptoxanth<strong>in</strong> (Table 5.4). Dur<strong>in</strong>g steep<strong>in</strong>g, the rate of steepwater uptake is dependenton the permeability of the tip cap <strong>and</strong> aleurone layer (prote<strong>in</strong> layer cover<strong>in</strong>g endosperm <strong>in</strong> corngra<strong>in</strong>s) (Krochta et al., 1981). Structural differences attributed to lower hydrogen concentrations<strong>in</strong> response to fungal degradation have been determ<strong>in</strong>ed for different varieties of dried corn gra<strong>in</strong>(assessed us<strong>in</strong>g neutron tomography analysis) (Clevel<strong>and</strong> et al., 2008). Differences <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>ternalstructure might change the degree of permeability <strong>in</strong> different varieties of corn kernels thusreduc<strong>in</strong>g contact between hydrogen peroxide <strong>and</strong> carotenoid molecules. Whether the two kernelsvarieties used <strong>in</strong> this trial presented different <strong>in</strong>ternal structure rema<strong>in</strong>s unknown <strong>and</strong> mightexpla<strong>in</strong> this result.Steepwater pH showed a significant effect on the bleach<strong>in</strong>g of all-trans zeaxanth<strong>in</strong> <strong>and</strong> alltransβ-cryptoxanth<strong>in</strong> (Table 5.4). Lower bleach<strong>in</strong>g rations of yellow carotenoids were observedunder alkal<strong>in</strong>e conditions for both types of kernels. Alkal<strong>in</strong>e hydrogen peroxide has beenreported as an effective bleach<strong>in</strong>g agent for the reduction of dark colour (expressed as total117
colour difference us<strong>in</strong>g a colorimeter) <strong>in</strong> wheat stillage (Abdel-Aal et al., 1996). However,sodium hydroxide utilized to modify steepwater alkal<strong>in</strong>ity <strong>in</strong> this trial most probably <strong>in</strong>creasedthe density of steep<strong>in</strong>g solution (Perry <strong>and</strong> Green, 1984) thus limit<strong>in</strong>g absorption of steepwaterby the kernel.Mass balance of starch obta<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong> this trial <strong>in</strong>dicated that 35% to 48% of the starchcontent <strong>in</strong> the <strong>in</strong>itial corn sample was not recovered (Table 5.5). These values are high comparedto those previously reported (6% to17% of starch loss) (Zehr et al., 1995; S<strong>in</strong>gh et al., 1997;Dowd, 2003). The occurrence of fermentation dur<strong>in</strong>g steep<strong>in</strong>g has been reported (Gawienowskiet al., 1999). Whether fermentation of starch occurred dur<strong>in</strong>g steep<strong>in</strong>g rema<strong>in</strong>s unknown <strong>and</strong>might expla<strong>in</strong> the high levels of unrecovered starch obta<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong> this study.On the other h<strong>and</strong>, values for prote<strong>in</strong> recovery were <strong>in</strong> general high, from 74% to 112%.This type of results has been previously associated to a low millability of corn kernels <strong>and</strong> tohigh recovery of starch <strong>in</strong> the gluten fraction (S<strong>in</strong>gh et al., 1997). Additionally, overestimationof prote<strong>in</strong> mass balance observed <strong>in</strong> this trial (e.i. values exceed<strong>in</strong>g 100%) can be attributed tosampl<strong>in</strong>g errors associated to the small quantity of sample used for the quantitative determ<strong>in</strong>ationof nitrogen (LECO, Dumas method).Mass balance for carotenoids obta<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong> this trial <strong>in</strong>dicated that a maximum of 65% <strong>and</strong>63% of total determ<strong>in</strong>ed yellow pigments conta<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong> the <strong>in</strong>itial sample were recovered <strong>in</strong> corngluten meals produced from varieties HiC7 <strong>and</strong> HiC23, respectively. This result <strong>in</strong>dicates thatabout 25% of yellow carotenoids are lost dur<strong>in</strong>g the wet mill<strong>in</strong>g process used <strong>in</strong> this trial evenunder acidic conditions (pH~2) <strong>and</strong> no hydrogen peroxide <strong>in</strong>clusion. No significant effect wasdeterm<strong>in</strong>ed for corn variety on mass balance of carotenoids <strong>in</strong> this study, suggest<strong>in</strong>g that118
