✦ Synopsis
A method for nearly complete extraction of the lipid fraction from wheat and rye germs was developed, and the technological parameters of the production process were specified. The resulting preparations are extracts rich in vitamin E and other biologically active components. Dermatological studies and application in the cosmetic industry have testified to the suitability of these preparations for use in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. Owing to their high content of unsaturated fatty acids and to a natural combination of biologically active compounds, the preparations from wheat and rye germs obtained by our method on an industrial scale find increasingly wider application. The post-extraction residue free from the lipid fraction is high-value feed.
