Results showed that the highest oryzanol and protein concentrations were found in the outer
portion of the rice bran layer, while the highest rice bran saccharide concentration was found in
the inner portion of the bran layer. Vitamin E concentration showed no significant difference across
the bran layer within a variety, though the highest magnitude of concentration occurs within the
first 10 seconds of milling for both varieties. To extract the higher concentration of oryzanol and
protein only the outer portion of the bran layer requires processing, while to extract the higher
concentration of rice bran saccharide, only the inner portion of the bran layer requires processing.
