Fish oil has several dietary benefits, but its application in food formulations is limited because of its poor water-solubility, easy oxidation and strong odor. The purposes of this study were to produce a fish oil/γ-oryzanol nanoemulsion and to evaluate the effect of adding this nanoemulsion on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of yogurts. Adding fish oil/γ-oryzanol nanoemulsion ...

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...

Changes in antioxidant properties and degradation of bioactives in palm oil (PO) and rice bran oil (RBO) during deep-frying were investigated. The alpha (α)-tocopherol, gamma (γ)-tocotrienol and γ-oryzanol contents of the deep-fried oils were monitored using high performance liquid chromatography, and antioxidant activity was determined using 2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavengi...

The benefit of rice bran to human health is already wellknown. It is a rich source of fiber, vitamin B1, tocoferol and γ-oryzanol. Unfortunately, freshly milled rice bran has a short shelf life because of its high triaclyglycerol content, which tends to decompose into free fatty acids (FFA). The last are responsible for off flavor development during rice bran storage. In this research, hot scre...

Abstract Background and Objective Two steryl ferulates (γ‐oryzanol), that is, cycloartenyl ferulate 24‐methylenecycloartanyl ferulate, were previously isolated as biomarkers for heat stress during ripening in rice ( Oryza sativa L.). γ‐Oryzanol is also known to exert several biomedical effects, such antihyperlipidemic, antidiabetic, anti‐inflammatory, anticancer activities. In the present study...

Rice bran is the cuticle existing between the rice and husk of the paddy and consists of embryo and endosperm of the seeds of Oryza sativa, family Graminae. It is obtained as a byproduct in rice mill during polishing of rice obtained after dehusking of paddy. Rice bran contains about 15% of fixed oil and is obtained by solvent extraction method. It contains oleic acid, linolenic acid as unsatur...
