“…Amino acids are actively metabolized in the immature cob in the early stages of hair emergence to regulate the growth of seedlings [42]. This is different to what is reported by [43], which is that powdered corn silk has a water content of 9.06g/100g, a fat content of 0.91g/100g, an ash content of 4.60%, a protein content of 17.94g/100g and a carbohydrate content of 51.37g/100g. Table 3 reveals that there are differences in the total phenolic content of corn silk powder across the three varieties of local corn silk tested (p<0.05).…”

Corn silk is a part of the corn plant that is still considered to be waste from corn processing; however, corn silk is actually known to have the potential to be developed as functional food ingredients and/or nutraceuticals. The potential applications of corn silk are closely related to its chemical composition and the action mechanisms of its bioactive compounds, which have beneficial effects on human health, such as flavonoids and phenolics. This study aimed to investigate the chemical and phytochemical characteristics of local corn silk powder of three different varieties, i.e. Bisma, Arjuna, and Srikandi Putih. Phytochemical and proximate analyses were conducted on each sample of corn silk powder. The total phenolic content was examined using the Folin-Ciocalteau method, while the beta sitosterol was analysed by gas chromatography and the antioxidant activity of the extract was evaluated using the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) method. The results show that all samples had different amounts for their moisture, ash, protein, fat and carbohydrate contents from the proximate analyses. The Bisma variety of corn silk powder reveals the highest fat and protein contents, which are 0.30%±0.02 and 17.70 ±0.47, respectively. Furthermore, the highest total phenolics, total flavonoids, beta-sitosterol contents and antioxidant activity for the corn silk powder are also demonstrated by Bisma; i.e. 8262.93±178.59 μg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g for total phenolics, 236.03±8.37 μg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g for total flavonoids, 1343.93±78.44ppm for beta-sitosterol and 73%±1.09 for antioxidant activity. Thus, it may be suggested that among the three local varieties of corn silk, a corn silk powder from the Bisma variety could be developed as a source of bioactive compounds and nutrients to convert corn silk from being waste into value-added corn products.

“…For the second measurement, the shear force required to shear through the whole meatball at a speed of 100 mm/min was determined. Cooked meatball samples were stored overnight in refrigeration condition at <5 • C. Thereafter, the samples were maintained at room temperature for 1 h prior to the textural analysis [23]. Five samples for each treatment's replicate were evaluated for each of the two assessments performed to compare the meatballs texture analysis: first, a single one-bite was performed to determine consistency and firmness using a compression plate with 100 mm diameter.…”

Meatballs are popular in Asia and traditionally made from beef or chicken with tapioca (≈8% wt/wt) as filler. Tapioca has a high glycaemic index (GI); therefore, rice bran was evaluated as a substitute to create a healthier meatball of acceptable quality. Substitution of tapioca with rice bran (100:0; 75:25, 50:50; 25:75; 0:100% tapioca: % rice bran) decreased the starch content (7.8 to 3.3%) and GI (56.08 to 43.85) whilst increasing the protein (10.9 to 12.8%) and fibre (8.1 to 10.3%) contents. Although consistency (995 to 776 N/mm) was affected, firmness (90.6 to 90.5 N) and shear force (300 to 312 N) were only slightly affected by the ratio of tapioca to rice bran. Sensory analysis revealed that the goat meatball with the substitution of tapioca with up to 25% rice bran was deemed acceptable by 40 Indonesian consumers.

“…Stigma maydis is an elongated stigma usually found in female growing maize flowers which resembles a cluster of threads, grass or hairs. It is a by-product from the planting of corn, and is generally discarded as waste due to the lack of utilization (Aukkanit et al, 2015). It is important in attracting pollens, which are further transferred from the anther to the stigma during pollination.…”

Background. Corn silk (Stigma madyis) is used in ethnomedicine for the management of diabetes, kidney stones, depression, fatigue, urinary infections and as a slimming tea. However, there is limited literature on its effect on body weight, lipid, hematological, hepatocellular, nephrological and histopathological indices which the present study evaluated. Materials and methods. In the acute toxicity test, aqueous extract of Stigma madyis was orally administered to rats using a gavage, in doses of up to 5 g/kg body weight. The rats were observed for any behavioral changes, signs of toxicity or mortality. In the sub-acute toxicity, rats were orally administered 500, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg Stigma madyis extract for 28 days. On the 29 th day, the rats were euthanized and the following parameters measured; lipid profile, hematology, serum chemistry and histopathology of the liver and kidney. Results. In the acute toxicity test, Stigma madyis did not cause any mortality and was non-toxic at the dose of up to 5 g/kg body weight. In the sub-acute study, the extract caused an observable significant increase (p < 0.05) in triglycerides (TAG), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), while the concentration of high density lipoprotein (HDL) decreased significantly (p < 0.05) when compared to the control group. AST and ALT increased significantly (p < 0.05) in rats treated with 1000 and 2000 mg/kg of Stigma maydis compared to their control. The histopathological results revealed degenerative changes in the liver at 2000 mg/kg body weight extract. Conclusion. In long term treatment, toxic effects were observed in liver at the doses of 1000 and 2000 mg/kg. This study suggests that prolonged use of higher doses of aqueous extract of Stigma maydis ≥ 1000 mg/kg could be hepatotoxic. Therefore, only lower doses should be encouraged for therapeutic use.
