BioBran is produced from rice bran. Hemicellulose B, a type of soluble dietary fiber contained in rice bran, is a polysaccharide with a complex structure consisting of arabinose and xylose. As it is, Hemicellulose B exerts no immunostimulatory effects. However, by reacting hemicellulose B with carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes obtained from shiitake mushroom mycelia, it exerts immunomodulatory effects. This product, BioBran, is a unique functional food ingredient developed by Daiwa, which focuses on traditional Japanese food and fermentation technology.
