Corn alcohol-soluble protein application food industry has broad prospects

In recent years, China's industrial consumption of corn has increased rapidly, corn deep processing process will produce
5%
of protein-rich waste - corn yellow powder. The international price of corn yellow powder is US$
200
per ton, and the corn yellow powder contains about
60%
of the protein, more than half of which is alcohol-soluble protein. Corn alcohol-soluble protein amino acids are uniquely composed, rich in hydrophobic amino acids, molecules are connected by disulfur bonds and hydrophobic bonds, making corn alcohol-soluble protein easy to film, the application prospects are broad.the properties of corn alcohol-soluble protein physical corn alcohol-soluble protein is generally a pale yellow powder, but after many decoloration of pure corn alcohol-soluble protein is white powder. Unique insoluble in pure water or alcohols, soluble in
60% to 95%
alcohol aqueous aqueous solution, strong alkali (
pH11
), sodium decane sulfonate (
SDS
) high concentration of urea and propylene glycol and acetic acid and other organic solvents.chemical structure can be divided into α
-
corn alcohol-soluble protein, β
-
corn alcohol-soluble protein and γ
-
corn alcohol-soluble protein according to the difference in solubility of corn alcohol-soluble protein in
0% to 95%
isopropyl alcohol solution. Corn alcohol-soluble protein ethanol aqueous solution contains more α
-
spiral, with strong swirl.the amino acids that make up the corn alcohol-soluble protein are mainly hydrophobic amino acids and sulfur-containing amino acids, which lack the alkaline, acidic and polar groups of charged alkaline, acidic and polar groups. The unique amino acid composition also makes corn alcohol-soluble protein have many special properties, it can eat, non-toxic side effects, has good biosyndability and degradation, these characteristics are not available in plastics and other chemical materials.The application of corn alcohol-soluble protein in the food industry corn alcohol-soluble protein can be used in food, medicine, cosmetics, chemicals and other industries, such as a reprieve as a pharmaceutical agent, to protect the active ingredients of the drug, so that the drug after the patient's ingestion slowly release the drug. Corn alcohol-soluble protein has been modified to make adhesives, replacing highly contaminated artificial adhesives. Corn alcohol-soluble protein, as a substance in corn, has an innate advantage in the food industry.the application ofgum in chewing gum products is a favorite sugar among teenagers and children, but the gum base of
20%
is not biodegradable and can cause environmental pollution. Corn alcohol-soluble protein is an excellent rubber-based substitute. Bamboo shoots can be used as the main raw material, add
15%
corn alcohol-soluble protein,
25%
wheat gluten and flavor additives to make plant gum, the chewing time of the gum is long, viscosity and hardness are in line with the requirements, but also has a certain nutrition.
