Abstract

A simplified method for detn. of the water-insoluble amylose content of rice is proposed, which dispenses with the laborious and time-consuming prior defatting of rice flour by Soxhlet extraction. The hot-water extract of rice flour is defatted by repeated shaking with petroleum ether (b.p. 60 degree -80 degree C), colour developed with iodine, and read at 630 nm against an amylose standard. Subtracting the above value from total amylose [determined as described in FSTA (1979) 11 11L730] gives the insoluble amylose content.
