Description The rice bran protein (RBP) fractions namely, albumins, albumins-globulins, and alkali extracted protein (AEP)
were evaluated for their nutritional response in the normal and malnourished male Wistar rats (50 ± 5 g). The
total essential amino acid (EAA) of AEP (40.1%) was closer to casein (43.4%) indicating its superiority. The
protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score (PDCAAS) of AEP (0.83) was the highest followed by albumins
(0.70) and albumins-globulins (0.66). AEP supplementation showed the highest corrected protein efficiency ratio
(CPER-1.99) compared to other fractions. Protein depletion considerably affected the body weight and organ
weight as well as haematology and serum biochemical markers level. During the repletion period, AEP group
regained the normal body weight, exhibiting the highest CPER (1.89). RBP repletion generally helped in
improving the organ weight, haematological and serum biochemical profiles. Nutritional assessment in experimental rats suggests that RBP may be promoted as an alternative plant-based protein to ameliorate protein
malnutrition.
