  • What is rice bran oil (RBO)?
  • Rice bran oil (RBO) from rice bran is a popular edible oil due to its numerous nutritional and health promoting qualities. Additionally, its rich nutrient and phytochemicals profile, high anti oxidant potential and promising health benefits have been the focus of current research.
  • What is rice bran oil?
  • Rice bran oil (RBO) is unique among edible vegetable oils because of its unique fatty acid composition, phenolic compound (¦Ã-oryzanol, ferulic acid) and vitamin E (tocopherol and tocotrienol). It has become a great choice of cooking oil because of its very high burning point, neutral taste and delicate flavour.
  • What is rice bran?
  • Rice bran is obtained from outer layer of the brown (husked) rice kernel during milling. It has emerged as potential by-product from rice processing industry due to the increasing demand for rice bran oil (RBO) as healthy functional food ingredients.
  • Should rice bran be stabilized after production?
  • It is advised to stabilize rice bran or RBO immediately upon production. High FFA results in high refining loss, therefore, it is beneficial to have FFA level of less than 5% in the crude RBO, and exceeding amount of FFA (> 10%) is unfit for human consumption ( Orthoefer and Eastman, 2005 ).
