Moldy corn processing and processing

Corn is the main raw material for livestock and poultry diets. Feeding a diet containing moldy corn for a long time will not only harm the animals, but harmful substances that remain in the animals will also cause hidden dangers to human health. After moldy corn, it will be contaminated with mycotoxin, mycotoxin.

Dilution: A small amount of mild mildew corn was gradually incorporated into normal corn several times.

Washing: moldy corn smash, add 3~4 times of water, stir and soak, stir and change water twice a day until the soaked water turns from brown to colorless, use it as soon as possible after washing.

Detoxification: Detoxification of moldy corn is mainly concentrated in the germ part of corn. First grind the corn into 1.5~4.5mm small particles, add 5~6 times of fresh water, and then stir. The germ debris will float on the water because of its lighter density, remove it or drain it with water. Second, you can achieve the purpose of removing germs and detoxification.

Physical adsorption: The use of minerals capable of adsorbing and capturing mycotoxin molecules - aluminum silicate, zeolite, bentonite, activated carbon, diatomaceous earth, etc., or bovine serum albumin, esterified mannooligosaccharides, etc.

Chemical treatment: Use lime water, soda, hydrogen peroxide or synthetic salt laxatives such as magnesium sulfate.

Supplemental nutrients: Supplementation of sufficient VA, VD, VE, VK, folic acid, organic selenium, methionine, etc. to alleviate poisoning effects, or use of organic acid additives, probiotics such as lactic acid bacteria, yeast, etc., can also help to reduce the toxicity of mycotoxins Some enzyme preparations also help to alleviate mycotoxins.

Severely contaminated corn processing: Corn with milder mildew should be collected, warehoused, and timely sent to the quality inspection agency. The corn that has been tested for excessive levels of toxins can only be marketed as industrial food, and must not be used for food and feed. Processing, mildew must be destroyed and must not be used. The above are the treatment measures for mold-contaminated corn. It is recommended that the use of moldy corn is best prohibited in the feed. Even mildly contaminated corn will cause great harm to livestock, poultry and humans.

Food Additives

Food additives are substances added to food. Some additives have been used for centuries. With the advent of processed foods in the second half of the twentieth century, many more additives have been introduced, of both natural and artificial origin.

The advantages of food additives are these followed:

1. Improve the appearance of food.
2. Keep and enhance the nutrition value of food.
3. Increase the variety and conveniences of food.
4. Miantain freshness and prolong shelf life.
5. Provide leavening or control acidity and alkalinity.
