Suppressive Ability of Defatted Rice Bran against Lipid Oxidation in Cookies Containing Iron [PDF]
Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2010 Cookies containing iron, defatted rice bran, and several oils were prepared, and their oxidative stability evaluated. Oxidation was suppressed by the defatted rice bran, but a limit to the suppressive effect was observed. The maximum peroxide values obtained with defatted rice bran were low, and similar, regardless of the degree of unsaturation of the ...
