Traditional rice varieties represent important genetic reservoirs with valuable traits such as nutritional values, especially those with a colored pericarp. The aim of this study was to determine nutritive values of 19 traditional rice varieties compared with Khao Dawk Mali 105 using standard analytical methods at the Central Laboratory (Thailand) Co., Ltd. Results showed varietal differences in nutritional compositions with the amount of protein ranging from 6.21 - 10.29 g/100 g, vitamin B1 from 0.08 - 0.49 mg/100 g, vitamin E (α-tocopherol) from 0.00 - 12.15 mg/kg, linolenic acid from 0.20 - 0.40 g/100 g, linoleic acid from 0.64 - 1.12 g/100 g, oleic acid from 0.77 - 146.12 mg/kg, iron from 7.42 - 36.12 mg/kg, phytate from 1,696.61 - 5,376.92 mg/kg,... |
