We examined butanol fermentation by Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 using various hydrolyzates obtained from rice bran which is one of the most abundant agricultural by-products in Korea and Japan. In order to increase the amount of fermentable sugars in the hydrolyzates of rice bran, various hydrolysis procedures were applied. Total eight different hydrolyzates were prepared using rice bran (RB) and defatted rice bran (DRB) with enzyme or acid treatment and both. Each hydrolyzate was evaluated in terms of total sugar concentration and butanol production after fermentation by C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052. Acid treatment yielded more sugar than enzyme treatment and combined treatment with enzyme and acid yielded even more sugars as compared to single treatment with enzyme or acid. As a result, the highest sugar concentration (33 g/L) was observed from the hydrolyzate from DRB (100 g/L) with combined treatment using enzyme and acid. Prior to perform fermentation of the hydrolyzates, we examined the effect of P2 solution containing yeast extract, buffer, minerals, and vitamins on production of butanol during the fermentation. Fermentation of the hydrolyzates with or without additionof P2 was performed using C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 in a 1 L anaerobic bioreactor. Although the hydrolyzates RB were able to support growth and butanol production, addition of P2 solution into the hydrolyzates significantly improved cell growth and butanol production. Highest butanol production (12.24 g/L) was observed from the hydrolyzate of DRB with acid and enzyme treatment after supplementation of P2 solution.

Rice bran contains high amounts of fiber and various phytochemicals, including vitamin E, ${\gamma}$-oryzanol, and phenolic acids. The oxidative stabilities of corn oil added with three rice bran extracts from two rice cultivars (Dasan 1 and Ilpum) were evaluated. The three rice bran extracts were unsaponifiable matter of rice bran (USM), methanolic extract of rice bran oil (MEO), and methanolic extract of defatted rice bran (MEDR). Each sample was stored at $50^{\circ}C$ for 24 days. Oxidation of these samples was determined every 3 days by measuring the peroxide value (POV) and conjugated diene value (CDV). Vitamin E content was analyzed on day 0 and day 24. The results show that the POV and CDV values of samples increased gradually during the storage period. The order of oxidative stability was shown as BHT> MEDR> MEO> USM> control, regardless of cultivars. In the case of vitamin E, ${\alpha}$-T, ${\gamma}$-T, ${\alpha}$-T3, and ${\gamma}$-T3 contents decreased by 89%, 31%, 83%, and 32% after storage for 24 days, respectively. In conclusion, MEDR showed higher oxidative stability and may have potential as a source of natural antioxidants in the oil industry.

A total of 225 day-old broiler chicks (43.08 g initial body weight) were allotted to three dietary treatments for a 6-week feeding trial. The treatments were 1) Control (defatted rice bran; DFRB), 2) fresh rice bran (FRB) and 3) rancid rice bran (RRB). Rice brans were intentionally spoiled by two degrees of rancidity by the values of free fatty acids (FFA): 7.6% (FRB) and 16.3% (RRB). Diets were prepared on an isonutrient basis, and defatted or rancid rice brans were included 5 and 10% for starter (0-3 week) and finisher (3-6 week), respectively. At the end of the feeding trial, six chicks per treatment were sacrificed, and thigh meats were ground and stored at $1^{\circ}C$ for thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and peroxide value (POV) analyses. For a digestibility, 48 growing chicks (4 weeks old) were employed in cages (3 replicates/treatment, 2 birds/cage) according to the experimental design: FRB, RRB, pelleted and extruded rice bran. Some of the FRB were pelleted ($70^{\circ}C$) or extruded ($110^{\circ}C$). There was no significant difference in growth performance during the starter period, but chicks fed a diet containing DFRB grew faster (p<0.05) with increased feed intake (p<0.05) than those fed diets containing rice brans, FRB or RRB, during the finisher period. Feed conversion ratio in the RRB was inferior (p<0.05) to the DFRB. Between rice bran groups, weight gain was higher (pco.os) in FRB than in RRB during finisher period. There was a similar trend in growth performance of chicks for the overall period (0-6 week) as the finisher period. Dry matter and energy digestibilities were higher (p<0.05) in extruded than in RRB group. Protein digestibility was improved (p<0.05) when rice bran was extruded, but not pelleted. The chicken meats from RRB showed higher (p<0.05) TBARS than those from FRB during storage for 4 weeks at $1^{\circ}C$. In conclusion, it would appear that feeding rancid rice bran gave negative effects on growth performance and lipid stability of meat in broiler chicks.

Comparative effects of oxidant, reductant treatment and its phosphorylation on qualities and functional properties of defatted rice bran protein isolates were investigated. Effects of oxidant and reductant treatment were that essential amino acid content of protein isolates was high and its color, pepsin digestibility were good. The phosphorylated defatted rice bran protein isolated was taken by incubating sodium trimeta phosphate in aqueous solution at pH 10.5 and $35^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours and its protein score was 55. Functional properties such as solubility, whipping activity and foam stability were much improved. But color, pepsin digestibility, bulk density and fat absorption were not affected by phosphorylation.

Rapid visco-analyzer (RVA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to study the effect of rice bran dietary fiber extract on gelatinization and retrogradation of wheat flour. The addition of rice bran dietary fiber extracts from various heat treated bran into wheat flour caused to increase the pasting temperature, peak viscosity and final viscosity of RVA measurements. For gelatinization measured with DSC, mixtures of wheat flour and rice bran dietary fiber extract had slightly higher To (onset temperature) and Tp (peak temperature) values than those of control (wheat flour), and wheat flour/defatted rice bran dietary fiber extract mixture had the lowest enthalpy value. In comparison with gelatinization, the retrogradation endotherm of mixtures stored at $4^{\circ}C$ up to 4 weeks occurred at about $20^{\circ}C$ lower temperatures than gelatinization endotherm with broader shape and well-defined thermograms with storage time. The retrogradation of wheat flour was retarded greatly by addition of rice bran dietary fiber extract, and there was no big difference between 5% and 10% additions.

Calcium and iron binding peptides were prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis and ultrafiltration of rice bran protein (RBP), which was isolated from defatted rice bran by phytase and xylanase treatment and ultrasonication. The isolated RBP had a molecular weight in the range of 10-66 kDa. The extracted proteins were hydrolyzed using Flavourzyme for 6 hr. After ultrafiltration under 5 kDa as molecular weight, the peptides were fractionated into 4 peaks by Sephadex G-15 gel permeation chromatography, and each fraction was determined for calcium and iron binding activity. As the result, Fl and F2 fractions were the best candidate for calcium and iron chelation, respectively. These results suggest that the calcium and iron binding peptides can be used as functional food additives in food industry.

These experiments were performed to investigate the culture condition, characteristic of crude enzyme and the heat resistance of the acid protease by Aspergillus awamori U-3. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The optimum culture temperature and time on wheat bran medium and defatted rice bran medium were 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 72 hrs, respectively. The optimum amount of added water was 100~120 ％ on wheat bran medium and 100~130 ％ on de-fatted rice bran medium. 2. Of the these various ingredients, addition of KN $O_3$, glutamic acid and glucose on wheat bran medium and addition Of KN $O_3$, (N $H_4$)$_2$S $O_4$, glucose, lactose, K $H_2$P $O_4$ and MgC $l_2$ on defatted rice bran medium were very effective. On wheat bran medium, concentration of addition of glucose, KN $O_3$ and glutamic acid were 3.0~4.0％, 0.2~0.4 ％ and 1.0％, respectively. 3. The optimum pH for the enzyme action was 2.4 ％, the optimum temperature about 45$^{\circ}C$ and the stable pH range 2.0~5.0, The enzyme was stable below 5$0^{\circ}C$ and was inactivated rapidly above 5$0^{\circ}C$. 4. The addition of CaC $l_2$ and CaS $O_4$ as the heat resistance agents showed the slight resistance. 5. When the enzyme solution added with the heat resistance agents (CaC1$_{2}$ and CaS $O_2$) was heated for 10-30 minutes at 6$0^{\circ}C$, their remaining activities were decreased largely above 20 minutes and The heat resistance effects of CaC $l_2$ and CaS $O_4$ were not observed almost at 8$0^{\circ}C$.

For efficient extraction of protein from defatted rice bran, the 5 ranges of extraction pH (8, 9, 10, 11 and 12) and the 3 ranges of isoelectric precipitation pH (2, 4 and 6) were used. The protein content, browning reaction, the electrophoresis pattern and the recovery yield of soluble protein at each pH range were compared each other. The recovery yield of soluble protein increased in proportion to extraction pH, but at the same time, browning reaction became more conspicuous. The most amount of protein was recovered at the precipitation pH of 4. The SDS-PAGE patterns of the extracted proteins showed no significant correlations between pH and the protein content, but the highly alkaline condition was more advantageous to extract protein less than 35 kDa. In each pH range, the recovery yield of soluble protein averagely reached 32.5% on the basis of extraction. In result, it was found that combination of extraction pH 10 and precipitation pH 4, which resulted in 37.65% of recovery yield and low level of browning reaction, was the optimum condition for the extraction of protein from defatted rice bran.

Defatted rice bran is mixed with diluted acid solution, the mixture is agitated some hrs. at constant temparature. After the mixture is filtered, thus filtrate is obtained. This filtrate is phytin extract solution. (Test-1) The alkali is added to this filtrate and filtered out, then the precipitation of phytin is obtained. (Test-2) At the test-1, the effect of kind of acid, conc. of acid, amount of extract sol'n., time of extraction, temp. of extraction, to the extract amount of phytin is tested. Consequently, the following facts are known. 1. Amount of phytin extract is greater HCI extraction than $H_{2}SO_4$ extraction. 2. At 0.3% HCI, the amount of phytin extract is greatest of all HCl extraction. 3. The sufficient amount of acid solution is 8-10 times of amount of defatted rice bran. 4. The time of extraction at room temperature is sufficient 8-12 hrs. 5. When extract temperature is $20-30^{\circ}C$, the amount of phytin extraction is greater of all temp. 6, When defatted rice bran 20 g is shanken with 160 ml of 0.3% HCl for 10 hr. at room temp., in this case the amount of phytin extract is 11.34% of defatted rice bran, it is 93% of theoretical yield. At the test-2 the effect of kind of precipitation agent, degree of nutralization to the amount of phytin prcipitation is tested. 1. Degree of nut. is best at pH 6.8-7.0. 2. When use of $Ca(OH)_2$ the amount of phytin precipitation is more than use of KOH, NaOH, or $NH_{4}OH$. 3. At pH 6.0-7.2, the solubility of phytin is followed. K-phytate > $NH_{4}-phytate$ > Na-phytate > Ca-phytate 4. When phytin extract solution is nutralized with $Ca(OH)_2$ to pH 7.0, the amount of phytin precipitation is 94.78% of theoretical yield.
