Abstract After rice harvesting, the milling processes generate many by-products including husk, bran, germs, and broken representing around 40% of total grain. Bran, one external cereal layers, contains proteins, dietary fibers, minerals, lipids. One most common bran utilization is extraction oil (RBO). Among all vegetable oils, RBO presents a unique chemical composition rich in antioxidant com...

Skin cancer is the most widespread worldwide, mainly caused by exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UV) in sunlight. Utilizing topical preventive agents routinely daily used cosmetics may prevent UV-related skin damages and cancers. ?-Oryzanol (GO) a natural component derived from rice bran oil, with potential antioxidant anti-aging properties. We biologically thorough studied anticancer effects ...

Rice bran, a by-product derived from processing rice, is a rich source of bioactive compounds. Recent studies have suggested that the fermentation can improve their biological activities. This study aimed to determined the level of γ-oryzanol, β-glucan and total phenol contents of fermented rice bran from 21 Korean varieties, as well as to evaluate their antioxidant activities. We also assessed...

Cereal Chem. 77(5):551–555 Rice bran contains high amounts of beneficial antioxidants including tocopherols, tocotrienols, and oryzanols. Current rice milling technology produces rice bran from different layers of the kernel caryopsis. Under current practices, these layers are combined and then steam-extruded to form a stabilized rice bran pellet that is storage-safe prior to oil extraction. Ea...
