dc.description.abstractIn the present study, rice bran from 19 genotypes, including ten non-basmati and nine basmati genotypes were characterized on the basis of their proximate and nutritional composition along with antioxidant properties of protein fractions. The constitutional level of lipoxygenase in rice bran was also determined. The content of crude protein, crude fat, crude ash and dietary fibre in their bran fraction varied from 12.56-22.88 %; 16.92-23.63 %; 8.43-14.96 % and 21.62-28.48 %, respectively. The mean protein content of various Osborne fractions viz., albumin, globulin, glutelin and prolamin among genotypes was found to be in the ratio of 41.09: 18.33: 36.16: 4.42. Significant variation was seen in free amino acids (4.58-10.95), cysteine (0.91-2.07 mg g-1 DW ), methionine (16.33-27.59 mg g-1 DW), proline (19.48 μg g-1 DW), lysine (3.52-5.86 %) and tryprophan (0.55-1.55 %) content. Antioxidant properties of rice bran protein fractions in terms of DPPH free radical scavenging activity (%), Ferric reducing ability power (μmol Fe (II) g-1 DW) and metal chelating power assay(%) was found in the order of albumin > globulin > glutelins > prolamin. Superoxide anion radical scavenging activity (%) was found to be highest in albumin fraction, followed by glutelins, globulins and prolamin. Low reducing power (mg/g DW) and radical cation ABTS.+ scavenging activity (mM/g TEAC) was present in rice bran protein fractions. Wide differences in the rice bran lipoxygenase activity (0.082-1.81 units) was observed. This information about the variations in biochemical parameters among rice bran from different genotypes would enable the breeders’ to produce genotypes with improved bran proximate composition and ratio of protein fractions with high antioxidant potential and low lipoxygenase activity for desired end-use.en_US
