Effect of method of stabilization on aqueous extraction of rice bran oil

Rice Bran Oil

“…16 On the other hand, the aqueous extraction method led to lower free fatty acid content in the oil, compared to that obtained by extraction with hexane. 17 An interesting approach to extracting and refining this oil using supercritical carbon dioxide has been reported to preserve its nutritional phytochemicals and to produce lower quantities of wax, in comparison with organic solvent extraction. 18 Crude RBO is the first product obtained from the refining process.…”

The ultrasound-assisted aqueous extraction of rice bran oil

“…Aqueous extraction was done based on the Amarasinghe's method (Amarasinghe, Kumarasiri, & Gangodavilage, 2009). RBO was extracted from raw rice bran using distilled water as the solvent.…”

“…Due to the low solubility of oil in water efficiency of aqueous extraction is lower compared to hexane extraction. A de-emulsification step is required to separate the oil and an aqueous effluent is produced which requires further treatment (Hanmoungjai, Pyle, & Niranjan, 2000;Amarasinghe, Kumarasiri, & Gangodavilage, 2009). Therefore, determination of optimum operating conditions for aqueous extraction is important.…”

Influence of Temperature on Gamma-Oryzanol Stability of Edible Rice Bran Oil during Heating

“…Recently, the reputedly solvent for high oil extraction is hexane [17]. Therefore, the other solvent types were compared in accuracy determination of -oryzanol content.…”
