Cytoplasm effects on rancidity related traits in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) hybrids [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background Pearl millet is a nutritionally rich, climate-resilient cereal, but its large-scale utilization is constrained by rapid rancidity in flour, caused by lipid hydrolysis and oxidation.

Thermal treatment in combination with laminated packaging under modified atmosphere enhances the shelf life of pearl millet flour

Food Chemistry Advances, 2023
Pearl millet grain is storable for months without development of rancidity, while milled flour has very short shelf life of 5 to 7 days due to high fat content and lipolytic action of enzymes.
