About Rice Bran
Rice bran, full-fat rice bran, defatted rice bran, de-oiled rice bran, rice pollards, rice polishings, rice mill feed.
One hundred kilogram (100 kg) of paddy rice will generate approximately 5−10 kg of bran. Rice bran is a mixture of substances, including protein, fat, ash, and crude fiber. In many cases, bran contains tiny fractions of rice hull, which increases the ash content of bran. Bran composition is largely dependent on the milling process.
In modern rice mills, several different kinds of bran are produced: coarse bran (from the first whitening step), fine bran (from second whitening step) and polish (from the polishing step). Polish consists of part of the endosperm and is often referred to as meal.
Rice bran contains 11-17% of protein, 12-22% of oil, 10-15% of moisture, 6-14% of fiber and 8-17% of ash1. It is rich in vitamins and minerals, such as calcium, aluminum, iron, chlorine, manganese, magnesium, zinc and phosphorus, niacin, vitamin E, and thiamine1. The normal specification of rice bran is Protein: 16% min, Sand/silica: 3% max, Fibre: 12% max, Moisture: 12% max2.
