  • How is rice bran oil extracted?
  • Rice bran oil (RBO) is obtained through extraction of rice bran which is a by-product of the rice milling industries. There are several techniques used for the extraction of the RBO, but solvent extraction using hexane is the most popular used conventional method for commercial extraction.
  • How to improve the extraction ratio of rice bran oil?
  • Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. In order to improve the extraction ratio of rice bran oil, a single-factor experiment and response surface methodology with a central composite design were used to determine a new mixed solvent and the optimal extraction conditions of the mixed solvent.
  • Can -oryzanol be extracted from rice bran oil?
  • All the here reported green extraction techniques allow a high-quality rice bran oil and high concentrations of γ-oryzanol to be obtained and show comparable yields with the extraction methods that employ hexane.
  • Is rice bran a good alternative to oil extraction?
  • Surfactant-assisted aqueous extraction process (SAAEP) is used as an environmentally friendly alternative method for oil extraction. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most widely produced and consumed foods, and it produces bran as a by-product. Therefore, this study aims to determine the optimum conditions for SAAEP from rice bran.
  • How is RBO extracted from rice bran?
  • The Japanese were the first to extract RBO from rice bran using the hydraulic press technique, which is still used nowadays, but recently, the preferred industrial technique for commercial uses is extraction using non-polar solvents, such as hexane .
  • Does hexane substitution affect rice bran oil extraction?
  • The impact of hexane substitution by ethanol or isopropanol on rice bran oil extraction was assessed. Oil physicochemical characteristics and protein fraction functionality were evaluated. The temperature and solvent type influenced the yield of oil. Increased solvent hydration and temperature negatively affected protein solubility.
