[Investigation on fat-quality of embryo, endosperm and crush fractions of maize kernel (author's transl)].
Investigations were conducted on the composition of fatty acids in the fat of the embryo, the endosperm and several crush fractions of the maize kernel. The following results were obtained: 1. The embryo fat contained relatively lower contents of palmitin-, stearin- and linolenic acid, on the other hand higher contents of oleic- and linoleic acid in comparism to endosperm fat. 2. This result was identical to each one of the seven varieties examined. 3. The examined varieties presented clear differences both in the absolute contents of single fatty acids in the embryo and in the endosperm, as well as in the relationship between the components in the germ and in the endosperm. 4. The differences observed between the germ- and the endosperm fat in the crush fractions in some cases were clearly visible, while in other cases were not traceable.
