Extraction and Film Properties of Kafirin from Coarse Sorghum and Sorghum DDGS by Percolation
The high cost of kafirin and zein restricts their use for bioplastic and food applications. Effective, simple and rapid kafirin/zein isolation processes are required. Here a percolationtype aqueous ethanol solvent extraction process from coarse meals (grits) and coarse sorghum DDGS for kafirin and zein isolation employing a low ratio of extractant to meal (2.5:1) was investigated, which is pote...
متن کاملCharacterisation of Fractions Extracted from Sorghum Byproducts
Sorghum byproducts, namely bran, stalk, and panicle are examples of lignocellulosic biomass. These raw materials contain large amounts of polysaccharides, in particular hemicelluloses, celluloses, and lignins, which if efficiently extracted, can be utilised for the development of a range of added value products with potential applications in agriculture and food packaging sectors. The aim of th...
متن کاملTannic acid modifies the material properties of Sorghum Kafirin film
Kafirin, the prolamin protein of sorghum, was made into films and tannic acid (TA) was added to potentially change the film properties. TA increased the maximum tensile stress and Young’s modulus of kafirin films, but decreased the strain at break. The oxygen permeability of the films decreased on addition of TA. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the films increased when TA was added. Th...
متن کاملComparison of methods for extracting kafirin proteins from sorghum distillers dried grains with solubles.
Use of coproducts generated during fermentation is important to the overall economics of biofuel production. The main coproduct from grain-based ethanol production is distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS). High in protein, DDGS is a potential source of protein for many bioindustrial applications such as adhesives and resins. The objective of this research was to characterize the composit...
متن کاملAdhesive Performance of Sorghum Protein Extracted from Sorghum DDGS and Flour
Distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) is the main co-product from grain-based ethanol production. The objective of this research was to compare the adhesive performance of three types of sorghum proteins: acetic acid-extracted sorghum protein from DDGS (PI), aqueous ethanol-extracted sorghum protein from DDGS (PII) and acetic acid-extracted sorghum protein from sorghum flour (PF). Physic...
