         Rice protein biologically active peptide, rice protein contains a large number of hydrophobic amino acids, which can be obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis at a specific site by a suitable protease to obtain a peptide fragment containing a hydrophobic amino acid at the C-terminus, namely ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme angiotensin-converting enzyme). ) active peptide fragments. ACE inhibitors are the main drugs for the treatment of hypertension, and rice proteolytic active peptides have high safety and no side effects. For infants with sensitive diarrhea, rice protein is widely used to develop high-protein hypoallergenic infant formula rice flour due to its low antigenicity and high nutritional value. Rice protein is gluten-free and suitable for people with wheat intolerance, allergies or celiac disease. Rice protein concentrate can also be used as supplementary food for patients with reduced normal protein intake or impaired protein digestion to maintain nitrogen balance; it can also be used as an osmotic diuretic, peptic ulcer disease, and adjuvant therapy for trauma. Improve the solubility of rice bran protein, improve other functional properties, can be used as food emulsifier, foaming agent, nutrition fortifier. Edibility, the Southern Louisiana Research Center has developed an edible film with certain tensile strength and water vapor resistance using a combination of rice protein concentrate and pullulan, which is used as a flavor substance and nutritional additive.
