Effects of Storage Temperature on Physical and Chemical Properties of
Brown Rice, Parboiled Brown Rice and Parboiled Paddy
Thai brown rice (BR), parboiled brown rice (PB) and parboiled paddy (PP) with Chainat1
variety were stored in polyethylene bag at different temperatures of 4 C, 25C and 37C for sixmonths.
The effects on the alteration of chemical and physical properties, namely, moisture
content, b-value, hardness value, water absorption and morphological properties of starch were
investigated every month.
