Description
Rice Bran and Rice Bran Oil (RBO) provides much-needed best practices on the science and technology of RBO, including the chemistry, dectection methods, nutrition (including the effect of processing technologies on micronutrients) and applications. RBO contains many nutritional components, including up to 2% oryzanol, tocotrienol, and phytosterols. In addition, the fatty acid composition is well balanced with mainly oleic acid and very little linolenic acid, which allows for versatile uses in frying, cooking, and in formulating oil blends for food uses, especially as a trans-free alternative. Many food industrial sectors are seeking possibilities to use RBO in their products from not only Asia and South America, but also Europe and North America. However, there are many processing, analytical, and nutritional considerations that must be documented in one resource. This volume is perfect for those interested in understanding the many emerging potential uses for this alternative oil.
Written by a team of experts from academia and industry, this book is the first of its kind. In addition, it provides an overview of related rice bran products and their development, including:
• Rice bran protein
• Rice dietary fiber
• Dietary rice bran/meal
• Rice husk/ash applications
• Paddy straw applications
• Valued added products, including rice bran wax
Key Features
- Delivers practical application guidance in the selection and storage of raw materials, ensuring processing conditions address stability concerns during production
- Presents simple and reliable detection methods, as well as the international and national rice bran oil standards
- Provides core scientific insights into this trans-free oil option
Readership

Reviews
This book on rice bran oil is the latest book in a series that includes books on soybeans, Canola, palm oil and sunflower. Like its predecessors it has been edited by recognized experts who have engaged specialist authors for the various chapters…. The book confirms that rice bran continues to be an underutilized raw material… Hopefully, this book which includes chapters describing Nutritional ingredients and active compositions of defatted rice bran and Rice bran protein and shows that oil is not the only valuable product of bran extraction will encourage such a system being realized. Perhaps the chapter on Rice husk, rice husk ash and their applications, will also stimulate interest in the field…
Rice bran oil is unique in that it contains γ-oryzanol, a mixture of esters of ferulic acid and a range of phytosterols, which mixture is considered to provide the oil with important nutraceutical properties. Accordingly, the book includes chapters dealing with Nutritional studies, Micronutrients, and Nutritional ingredients… The book is well written and easy to read.
