A Study Of Edible Wheat Germ Oil From Local Grains

Abstract

The intensive development of grain production, in particular wheat, in Uzbekistan required the study of many varieties that are favorably cultivated on rainfed and irrigated lands under hot climatic conditions. Such cultivated varieties of wheat are among them: Intensive, Sansar-8, Bakht, Yuna, Kupava, Chillaki, Delta, Andijon-1, Andijon-2, Yugtina, Umanka, Echo, Polovchanka, Kroshka, Knyazhna, Hosildor and others.

During ten years these varieties were tested in different regions of the Republic, where their more productive and high-yielding species were identified.

Along with the selection of productive wheat varieties, the physical and chemical, as well as other properties of their embryos, were naturally changed. This should be taken into account when improving the technology of their processing.

In the embryo, all the most valuable and useful things that are in the wheat grain are concentrated. The embryo is a biologically active center of the grain, which concentrates a variety of oral factors that provide germination of the impact on the human body. Besides, the germ part is very rich in vitamin E and selenium, which maintain the functional stability of cells and their resistance to damaging effects, which is very important for maintaining germination ability. It is known that seedlings contain the most enormous amount of vitamin E (up to 200 mg/100 g) of all known products.
