The addition of select polyphenols to rice bran may inhibit the
detrimental effects of rice bran lipase and make the bran an
interesting source of edible oil, Indian researchers report.
Using simple brewers yeast to encapsulate polyphenols could mask
the unpleasant flavour and boost stability of water-soluble
antioxidants, says new research.
Resources are being poured into research on a health promoting
ingredient used widely in the food industry as scientists set to
sequence a portion of the gene-rich regions of 12 tomato
chromosomes.
