Sažetak
Maize is a source of carotenoids, whose stability is strongly influenced by light, temperature and oxygen. Due to exposure to these influences, prolonged storage of milled kernels can lead to increased carotenoid degradation. In this study, milled kernels of different maize hybrids were subjected to prolonged storage at different temperatures, and carotenoid content was monitored over time. The results showed that hybrids with higher content of zein, free and bound endosperm lipids had lower carotenoid degradation rates (r=-0.431, -0.473 and -0.729, respectively).
