Rice bran is the layer underneath the rice hull rich in oils. The oil spoils hence rice is normally stored as just the kernel without the hull nor bran.
The rice bran oil can be heat-treated to increase its longevity[1] (http://www.fftc.agnet.org/library/article/pt2003037.html). The extracted rice bran oil has found use in the paint industry[2] (http://www.hbti.edu/oil.htm). It is suppose to improve human health[3] (http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0FDN/is_5_6/ai_80490897).
