Abstract

Size separation, pneumatic air classification and saline separation procedures employed to separate germ from different types ofrice bran (rQlI~ steamed and parboiled) were collected from rice mills and were analyzed individuallyjor physico-chemical andnutritional properties. The porosity ofgennfrom steamed andparboiled rice bran were 51.42 and 54.05%. respective(v where as that ofraw rice germ exhibited higher value (65.8]%). The protein, fat, andoryzanol content o.fsteamed andparboiledgerm showedan average increase of5.28, 2,15, and O. 08%. respective(v compared to raw rice germ. The fi"ee fatty acid content was < 6.2% for pure germ. The thiamine content "vas highest in raw germ (1 6]mgIlOOg) and least for parboiled germ (O.26mgIlOOg). Phosphorus content o.fparboiled germ was least (32.47%) compared to raw germ (72.1%). Rice germ could be utilizedforjoodformulations, like geriatric food, mother food, and specialty foods.
