The objective of this study has been to evaluate the stability of alpha-, (gamma+beta)-, and delta-tocopherols in rice bran oil chemically refined submitted to heating in a heater without air circulation and shielded from light, at temperatures of 100 degrees C and 180 degrees C. The collection of samples took place after 48, 96, 144, 192, 240, 336, and 432 h of heating and were stored in amber...

in multi-stage drying of various rough rice varieties, determination of the optimum drying and tempering conditions is important to accelerate the operation and reduce energy consumption, as well as produce a high quality product. in this research, two rice varieties namely, shafagh (long-grain) and sazandegi (medium-grain) were dried under high (air temperature and relative humidity of 60°c an...

Expression levels of the NAC gene family were studied in rice infected with Rice dwarf virus (RDV), Rice black-streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV), Rice grassy stunt virus (RGSV), Rice ragged stunt virus (RRSV), and Rice transitory yellowing virus (RTYV). Microarray analysis showed that 75 (68%) OsNAC genes were differentially regulated during infection with RDV, RBSDV, RGSV, and RRSV compared with th...

Rice Bran Protein Fractions (RBPFs) albumin, globulin, glutelin and prolamin were extracted from untreated and parboiled rice bran and their comparative studies were made for the yield, protein content, bulk densities, water absorption capacities, Nitrogen Solubility Index (NSI), emulsion property and least gelation concentration. The maximum yield of the protein fractions were obtained in parb...

The influence of oil rate and quality of rice bran oil by enzymatic extraction ultrasonic assisted were studied through designed experiment. The optimum enzymatic hydrolysis conditions were determined by the way of the orthogonal test. The results showed: after lipase enzyme in the rice bran (40 mesh sieve) was killed by the hot steam, the solution compounding material liquid ratio was 1:5 (W/V...

Rice bran is a simple item that delivers fantastic health benefits in our daily diet. This study delivers the importance of utilising all parts of the whole grain, including the bran. The objective was to develop the recipes incorporated with rice bran and evaluate their organoleptic properties and estimate their glycemic index. Ten standard Indian subcontinent recipes namely, chapati, mixed ve...

To establish the effectiveness of a new phytosterol-containing spread derived from rice bran oil (RBO), a randomised, double-blind, cross-over human clinical trial was conducted over 12 weeks. A total of eighty mildly hypercholesterolaemic (total blood cholesterol level ≥ 5 and ≤ 7·5 mmol/l with a serum TAG level of ≤ 4·5 mmol/l) individuals were randomised into two groups (n 40). Group 1 consu...

The present work deals with comparison of microwave assisted extraction to that of conventional solvent extraction for the extraction of rice bran oil (RBO); focusing on extraction yield and oil composition. Microwave assisted extraction act as a green process over other method and proved that it is effective method for extraction of oil. The investigation also focuses on the study of functiona...
