Enzymatic hydrolysis was performed in conjunction with high hydrostatic pressure (HPP) treatment to extract tricin from rice hull. Enzymatic hydrolysis performed with Celluclast (0.5%, w/w) prior to HPP (500 MPa) treatment yielded maximum tricin content (32.9 mg/kg rice hull). The tricin content obtained by conventional solvent extraction and HPP treatment alone were 14.7 and 19.7 mg/kg rice hull, respectively. The rice hull extract containing tricin displayed antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiadipogenic activities. The efficacy of rice hull extract obtained by either HPP or combination of enzymatic hydrolysis and HPP treatments was significantly greater than that of extract prepared by traditional solvent extraction.
