“…The SS processing of paddy and rice has been extensively studied for its potential functionality for improving the storage stability and nutritional attributes of rice and rice products (Cheevitsopon & Noomhorm, 2015; Wu et al., 2014; Wu, McClements, Chen, Hu, et al., 2016; Wu, McClements, Chen, Liu, et al., 2016; Yodkaew et al., 2017). The stabilization of lightly milled rice using SS processing can also increase the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity, which is caused by the enhanced extractability and release of bound phenolic acids (Cenkowski et al., 2012; Wu, McClements, Chen, Hu, et al., 2016). Additionally, fewer phenolic acids are lost during SS processing, as compared to other forms of heat treatment, because of the oxygen‐free environment during SS processing (Wang et al., 2014; Wu, McClements, Chen, Hu, et al., 2016).…”
