Hypolipidemic effects of lipid-lowering granulated tea preparation from Monascus-fermented grains (adlay and barley bran) mixed with lotus leaves on Sprague–Dawley rats fed a high-fat diet

In this study, we used adlay and barley bran as substrates to prepare Monascus-fermented grains and discussed the optimum conditions for monacolin K production. Box–Behnken design results showed that the predicted maximum monacolin K yield (112.649 mg/kg) was close to the experimental value (110.556...
