When flour is supplemented with folic acid, effectiveness evaluations generally demonstrate a decrease in neural tube malformations. Less often noted reductions in anemia and iron deficiency exist. To expand the use and impact of fortified wheat and maize flour, several obstacles must be overcome. Although it is not widely connected, maize protein can create a viscoelastic dough. A sequence of zein proteins makes up the majority of the 9–10% protein in maize flour.
These proteins have a low molecular weight and a considerable degree of secondary-helical and -sheet structure. The lengthy polymeric structure present in wheat glutenins is absent from them. The protein is assumed to start unfolding as the masa dough is worked, allowing for the formation of hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic bonds between nearby molecules. Additionally, research shows that the development of the zein network is not likely to involve disulfide connections or other types of covalent bonding.
According to data from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), maize grain is an essential part of animal feed. An average of 41% of all maize produced worldwide was used to make animal feed.
