The effect of alkaline extraction and drying techniques on the physicochemical, structural properties and functionality of rice bran protein concentrates
Rice bran protein concentrates (RBPC) were extracted using mild alkaline solvents (pH: 8, 9, 10). The physicochemical, thermal, functional, and structural aspects of freeze-drying (FD) and spray-drying (SD) were compared. FD and SD of RBPC had porous and grooved surfaces, with FD having non-collapse...
