Abstract

Shaking with dilute acid for 10 minutes extracted about 90% of the thiamine in rice flour. Similarly, digestion of rice flour with concentrated sulfuric acid even for 5 minutes released 90% of the total phosphorus. For processing control in rice mills, the short period extraction and digestion procedures could be adopted for ron tine assay to effect a saving in time.
