CORN GLUTEN FEED is the by-product of the wet-milling of maize grain for starch (or ethanol) production (Hoffman et al., 2010). Corn glutens feed consists mainly of maize bran and maize steep liquor (liquid separated after steeping) but may also contain distillers soluble, germ meal, cracked maize screenings, as well as minor quantities of end-products from other microbial fermentations.

The chemical composition of corn gluten feed varies hugely, as it depends on the milling process and on the relative proportions of bran, steep liquor and other components.
