Technological Quality of Soybean Oil Obtained From Stored Grain Under Controlled Environmental Conditions

Abstract

Soybean oil has many important components, but for its maintenance it is essential that there is an appropriate storage, temperature, relative humidity and optimum grain moisture content, because the oxidation reactions occur by improper storage, causing product deterioration. The objective of this study was to evaluate the main changes in the quality of soybean crude oil, from grain storage in temperature of 30°C and different relative humidity (59.6%, 67.0% and 76.0%). Soybean grains were packaged in plastic recipients, where saturated salt solutions were added so the grains reached the desired moisture. The analyses of moisture content, lipid, acidity index, color, antioxidant capacity, specific extension by absorption in the ultraviolet region were realized during storage for 180 days, because they indicate the degree of oil oxidation. A completely randomized design was conducted, and analysis of variance and Tukey test were performed. The storage time caused changes in physical-chemical properties of the grains, indicating that the oil was degraded over time.

Influence of Meloidogyne javanica parasitism on soybean development and chemical composition

“…Soybean grains contain 40% high-quality proteins, 20% lipids (including a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids), 35% carbohydrates, considerable levels of B vitamins, and 5% minerals (such as magnesium, phosphorus, iron, and zinc) [6]. Grains and derivatives are important sources of phenolic compounds-secondary metabolites synthesized by plants during normal development and in response to stress conditions, including pathogen infection.…”

Análises químicas dos grãos de soja avariados por percevejo na lavoura durante o armazenamento em diferentes condições

“…Os grãos com maior teor de água apresentaram maior porcentagem de óleo comparados com os armazenados com 11,75% (bu) de teor de água, sendo superior 0,96%. Bischoff et al 10 também observaram maior teor de óleo em grãos de soja armazenados com teor de água mais elevado por 180 dias, em atmosfera modificada. Figura 1.…”

“…A combinação de teores de água e temperaturas mais elevados intensificam o processo de deterioração de grãos de soja armazenados 9 . Além disso, as condições de armazenamento para os grãos de soja refletem diretamente sobre o rendimento e a qualidade do produto final 10 .…”

Effects of 660 nm laser irradiation of soybean seeds on germination, emergence and seedling growth

“…At present, soybean (Glycine max (L) Merrill) is one of the most important leguminous crops worldwide and it's highly recommended for human and animal consumption (Bischoff et al 2016) due to its relatively high protein, carbohydrate, amino acid and oil content (Sharma et al 2011). In Brazil, soybean is the most important crop, it generates is the highest income in its agricultural sector, at present, the country is the world's largest soybean exporter (Abraham et al 2020).…”
