In this study, we investigated the quality and antioxidant activity of wet noodles fortified by adding brown rice and sorghum powders. Wet noodles were divided into four groups: WN-p (wheat flour 100%, purified salt 2%), WBN-b (wheat flour 80%, brown rice powder 20%, bamboo salt (${\times}1$) 2%), WBSN-b (wheat flour 80%, brown rice powder 10%, sorghum powder 10%, bamboo salt (${\times}1$) 2%), and WSN-b (wheat flour 80%, sorghum powder 20%, bamboo salt (${\times}1$) 2%). The wet noodles were evaluated for their quality characteristics and capacities to scavenge free radicals. The weight, volume, capacity to absorb water, and turbidity of cooked WBSN-b were close to those of cooked WN-p. Springiness, cohesiveness, and chewiness of cooked WBSN-b were the highest among all cooked noodles added with brown rice or sorghum powders and textural properties of cooked WBSN-b were not significantly different from WN-P. In the sensory evaluation, the overall acceptance of WBSN-b received the highest score of 6.4 points, which was higher than the score for WN-p. DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities increased significantly with addition of brown rice and sorghum powder, and radical scavenging activities of WBSN-b and WSN-b were the highest. In conclusion, wet noodles added with 10% brown rice powder, 10% sorghum powder, and 2% bamboo salt (${\times}1$) exhibited the same quality properties of WN-p. Addition of 10% brown rice powder, 10% sorghum powder, and 2% bamboo salt (${\times}1$) increased the sensory and antioxidant activities of wheat flour noodles.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the content of functional components and the antioxidant activity of cooked rice and porridge composed of selected grains. The results of the study showed that brown rice and oat contained considerable amounts of γ-oryzanol (78.099~238.566 mg/100 g). However, cooked rice showed a decreased content of the same. The highest content of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was observed in brown rice from Samgwang. The contents of biotin in all samples also decreased in cooked rice compared to raw cereal grains. The highest content of total polyphenols and flavonoids were observed in Heukjinmi rice, and the highest radical scavenging activity was also found in this variety. The cooking process led to a decrease in the content of functional components including γ-oryzanol, GABA, biotin, polyphenols, and flavonoids versus the corresponding raw cereal grains. These results may be useful in the development and application of home meal replacements using cereal grains.

This study was to investigate the quality characteristics of brown rice mixed with white rice and boiled in hydrothermal extract of the medicinal herbs which was effective for diabetes in order to suggest a way of taking the rice everyday in Korean dietary life. The moisture content of the cooked rice was decreased with an increase of brown rice addition. The moisture content was same at Herbs extract ($H_2$). The physical properties of Herbs extract ($H_1$)and Herbs extract ($H_2$) showed a similar tendency. The hardness of the control, 100% of white rice, was lowest. The hardness was increased with increase of brown rice addition. The springiness, cohesiveness and gumminess tended to be decreased with increase of brown rice addition, while the chewiness was increased with increase of brown rice addition. In chromaticity, $H_1$ and $H_2$ revealed a similar trend. The color value L was decreased with increase of brown rice addition. The value a was decreased with increase of brown rice amount. On the contrary, the value b was increased with increase of brown rice amount. In the sensory test result of the cooked rice by using $H_1$, the appearance, taste, texture and the overall preference exhibited a tendency to decreased with increase of brown rice addition. The incase was similar to the rice cooked with $H_2$ and the overall preference showed a similar tendency, being highest at the sample added with 30% of brown rice.

Purpose: To improve the cooking quality of brown rice, newly inbred soft rice cultivars were investigated. Methods: The physicochemical properties of brown rice flour and water absorption patterns and cooking characteristics of brown rice grain were compared to Ilmi white and brown rice. Results: General composition and total dietary fiber contents of five rices were significantly different with higher ash, protein, and total dietary fiber contents in soft brown rice than white rice. The hardness of raw rice grain was higher in Ilmi brown rice than in soft brown rice. The water absorption increased rapidly in 30 min of white rice and in 4-6 h of brown rices. The apparent amylose content of soft brown rice was lower than that of Ilmi rice. The initial pasting temperature and all viscosities were significantly different, but the trend was not similar. The textural properties of hardness and roughness were higher, but adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and stickiness were lower in Ilmi brown rice than white and soft brown rices. In sensory preference test, not only textural properties, hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, stickiness, and roughness, but also color, glossiness, and roasted flavor were higher in soft brown rices. Especially soft brown rice B showed the best cooking quality among all rices. Conclusion: The results of the study suggested that soft brown rice is developed for cooking with high nutritional and functional quality.

This study was conducted to evaluate the safety of herbicide-resistant rice, a genetically modified organism (GMO) developed by the Rural Development Administration, in Sprague-Dawley rats. The nutrient content of herbicide-resistant polished and brown cooked rice was compared with that of conventional Ilpum polished and brown cooked rice to assess composition equivalence. Compositional analysis was performed to measure proximates, fiber, and minerals before animal feeding. Growing male rats were fed one of the following four diets for six weeks: Ilpum polished cooked rice (IP) and Ilpum brown cooked rice (IB) as a non-GMO and herbicide-resistant polished cooked rice (GP) and brown cooked rice (GB) as a GMO. We checked clinical symptoms (anorexia, salivation, diarrhea, polyuria, anuria, fecal change) every day, food intake, change of body weight twice a week, and serum biochemistry and organ weights after 6 weeks of experimental feeding among the four groups. Nutrient content of the herbicide-resistant rice was similar to that of the non-transgenic control and was within the published range observed for non-transgenic rice. We could not find any significant difference in the above-mentioned items as the index to be checked in the animals fed the GMO. These results suggest that the nutrient content of genetically modified herbicide-resistant rice is compositionally equivalent to that of conventional Ilpum rice and that growing male rats fed herbicide-resistant rice are no different from those fed Ilpum rice, non-GMO for 6 weeks.

In this study, the effect of degree of milled wax layer on compositions (protein and total dietary fiber content), Alkali Digestion Value (ADV), and texture (hardness, stickiness, toughness, and adhesiveness) with brown rice was investigated. For all the rice cultivars, $Baegjinju$, $Keunnun$, $Samkwang$, and $Seolgaeng$, protein content decreased significantly as the degree of pericarp milling increased ($p$<0.05). Total dietary fiber (TDF) content for $Keunnun$ (9.56%${\rightarrow}$8.09%) and $Samkwang$ (8.05%${\rightarrow}$7.06%) significantly decreased with the degree of removed wax layer. ADV was not affected by being removed wax layer, but ADV of $Samkwang$ was increased from 3.56 to 6.78. As the degree of removed wax layer increased (0%${\rightarrow}$10%), hardness and toughness of cooked brown rice were decreased but stickiness and adhesiveness was increased. The ratio of adhesiveness to hardness was increased with decreased wax layer of brown rice. Accordingly, It suggests that the regulation of the wax layer with brown rice was effected texture of cooked brown rice. The milling technology in wax layer of brown rice is that might be thought to be very useful in rice processing industry.

Germination is one of the techniques used to enhance the texture properties and nutritional value of the brown rice (BR). Therefore, germinated BR (GBR) has received significant attention during the last decade. Physicochemical and cooking properties of brown rice were examined before and after germination. Germination raised the cooking properties, such as water absorption, expanded volume and soluble solid of cooked BR (brown rice). The texture, measured using tensipresser, was significantly improved by germination. The hardness of cooked BR was decreased by germination, but the GBR was sticker. In RVA, all viscosity value (peak viscosity, break down, set back, and final viscosity) of germinated rice flour was also reduced while gelatinization temperature did not change. Amylose content and amylopectin chain length distribution of BR starch were slightly changed by germination. Overall results revealed that germination was an effective tool to improve texture and cooking properties of BR.

Five-brown-rice-variety, Akibare, Odaebyeo, Taebaegbyeo, Nonglim Na 1 and Hankangchalbyeo, was prepared and examinated the hydration kinetics and the cooking qualities. Before the hydration the L/W ratio of raw Taebaegbyeo was the biggest value among the five brown rices. The water uptake was directly proportional to the square root of soaking time. During the hydration water uptake of high yielding brown rices was bigger than those of traditional brown rices among the nonglutenious varieties but waxy brown rices were not. Generally volume increase constant was directly proportional to the water uptake constant, which were different a little with brown rices was hydrated which was inversed proportional to the water uptake degree. According to the instrumental result using the rheometer of cooked brown rice with increased soaking times that was decreased the hardness and was increased the adhesiveness. The sensory evaluation test indicated that the hardness and the stickiness value of cooked brown rices were proper after 15-hour-soaking time and it was identical result to the instrumental result using the rheometer.

The effects of germinated brown rice flour on the quality characteristics of white wheat flour noodles were investigated. The insoluble dietary fiber and soluble dietary fiber content of germinated brown rice flour were 5.1% and 4.2%, respectively. Water absorption, development time, and stability of farinogram decreased when germinated brown rice flour was added to white wheat flour. Brightness ($L^*$) decreased, but redness ($a^*$) increased in noodles made from germinated brown rice. Volume of cooked noodles did not change upon addition of germinated brown rice flour, but weight of cooked noodles decreased and the turbidity of cooked water increased. The cutting force of cooked noodles did not change upon addition of germinated rice flour. Addition of 10% germinated brown rice flour to white wheat flour did not have any effects on flavor, color, taste, appearance, and overall acceptability in sensory evaluation.
