  • Patent number: 6953849
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the isolation of a glycolipid enriched fraction from rice bran oil by subjecting crude rice bran oil to at least two steps of dewaxing/degumming, treating sludge obtained as a byproduct of the second said dewaxing/degumming to hexane extraction, and separating the glycolipid fraction. The glyolipid fraction so obtained can be further purified.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 28, 2001
    Date of Patent: October 11, 2005
    Assignee: Council of Scientific and Industrial Research
    Inventors: Shaik Ramjan Vali, Pradosh Prasad Chakrabarti, Narayana Balagopala Kaimal Thengumpillil
  • Patent number: 6706299
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a simple, and economical process for the preparation of rice bran oil low in phosphorous content (<10 ppm) by treatment of crude rice bran oil to substantially remove the phosphoglycolipids responsible for the residual phosphorus in degummed rice bran oil, said process comprising: a) treating the crude rice bran oil at ambient temperature with 5% of boiling water and separating the sludge formed to obtain a clarified oil, b) treating the clarified oil thus obtained with 0.5% to 10% of a reagent selected from the group consisting of mono-, di- or triethanolamine to obtain said low phosphorous content oil.

  • Patent number: 6410762
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the isolation of oryzanols from rice bran oil soap stock by (a) saponifying the oil present in soap stock with an alkali followed by neutralisation of the excess alkali, (b) converting the soap stock into anhydrous, porous soap noodles, (c) extracting the soap noodles with an organic solvent, (d) crystallising the crude unsaponifiable matter to remove impurities, (e) subjecting the residue to column chromatography to obtain an oryzanol rich fraction, and (f) recrystallising the oryzanol rich fraction using an organic solvent to obtain pure oryzanol.
