Cooking and eating characteristics are largely determined by the properties of the starch. Amylose content is the important starch properties that influence to cooking and eating characteristics. The study was compared between amylose standards and reading method : IRRI Amylose Standards which developed by INQR (International Network for Quality Rice) and Thai Amylose Standards which developed by Pathum Thani Rice Research Center. Five Thai rice varieties ; RD6, KDML105, RD7, PSL2 and CNT1; were used for studying the variation of 2 amylose standards and 3 methods. The 3 methods were (1) IRRI Standards (readings at wave length 720 nm. on Spectrophotometer and no standing time after the last chemical), (2) Thai Standards (reading at 620 nm. with 20 minutes... |
