Similar to paddy rice, the GABA content
in un-germinated red rice, was relatively low
(initial content 1.03 mg/100 g DW). Immediately
after soaking (0 hr germination time), the GABA
level increased to 2.05 mg. During the germination
process (8-48 h), the GABA content increased
noticeably several fold, varying from 2.55 to 21.32
