ABSTRACT: We aimed to evaluate the effects of solid-state fermentation (SSF) on red rice bran, specifically for a new
rice variety (RD69,Tubtim Chumphae) in Thailand. Fermentation of red rice bran with Aspergillus oryzae was continued
for 6 days at 30 ?C, and LC MS/MS was used to determine the free amino acid composition, antioxidant activity of
2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, ferric reducing antioxidant power, presence of phenolic and flavonoid compounds, and
cytotoxicity in HeLa cells. The results showed that SSF significantly increased (p < 0.05) the total amino acid content
by 59.00% after 5 days of fermentation. Fermented red rice bran (FRRB) contained a significant increase (p < 0.05)
in antioxidant activity and compounds, which reached their maximum levels by fermentation for 5 days. FRRB also
exhibited increased cytotoxicity in HeLa cells compared with unfermented rice bran. The increases of cytotoxicity
and antioxidant activities were due to enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation, in correspondence with the increase in
phenolic and flavonoid compounds, suggesting that enzymatic hydrolysis improves the nutritional and phytochemical
properties. Notably, the duration of fermentation is a key to optimizing the biological activity of the fermented product.
