Abstract:
The aim of the present study was to determine physico-chemical and functional properties of Rice bran the proximate composition analysis showed higher protein and fat content in rice bran. Rice bran is a rich source of vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, dietary fiber and other sterols. Proximate composition of rice bran (moisture, ash, crude protein, crude fat and crude fiber) were determined. Moisture content of 8.21 to 8.24% was observed, while average percent ash, fiber, fat and protein contents were 9 to 9.1%, 7.14 to 7.15%, and 17.21 to 17.23 and 12.55 to 12.58% respectively.
