SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
A study of the effects of oven drying temperature and time on whole-grain rough rice moisture content determination showed that the moisture content determined by a standard AOAC method could be accurately estimated from the apparent moisture content determined by oven drying at various oven temperatures Vol. JO(4);July-August, 1987 1191 for various times at moisture contents ranging from approximately 9 to 22% w.b. More specifically, the following conclusions were drawn:
