CORN OILS. 17 
No material difference could be noted in the finished oils from the 
germs immediately after their preparation, but upon standing some 
deterioration took place, and this was somewhat more noticeable in 
the benzol-extracted oils than in the expeller oils. 
All the oils except perhaps that obtained by benzol extraction of 
the cake from wet-process germs were sufficiently light in color to 
make them suitable for salad and cooking purposes. 
The oils obtained by benzol extraction from the two types of oil 
cake were inferior in all respects to the oils from the germs, that from 
the cake from wet-process germs being the poorer of the two. 
A more thorough deodorization than that to which the oils could 
be subjected in these experiments might eliminate the remaining 
traces of either benzol or other odorous constituents, which no doubt 
account for the slight inferiority noticed in the benzol-extracted oils 
from the germs.
