Abstract: Arabinoxylan, phytic acid and ferulic acid are the important physiological active materials separated from wheat bran.It has been known that they have several physiological activities such as antioxidant, anticancer. With the high water bindingcapacity and ability to form gels, wheat bran physiologically active materials have potentially important commercial applications,particularly in food industries. These productions and their structures will be effected by the isolation methods. Isolations andapplications of physiologically active materials from wheat bran were reviewed in this paper.

Key words: wheat bran, arabinoxylan, phytic acid, ferulic acid, isolation extract
