in order to identifying factors affecting milled rice breakage losses in guilan province, a research was conducted based on the descriptive survey with association of 75 rice mill owner in guilan province. factors affecting milled rice breakage losses were recognized with the delphi technique. in this regard, a descriptive questionnaire with an open-ended question was distributed among 5 rice m...

Cereal Chem. 66(4):317-320 The thermal properties of whole grain milled rice and milled rice flour samples. Gelatinization enthalpies were about 40% greater in whole grain were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. Thermal curves rice compared to rice flour for each variety. Heating rate studies conducted were obtained on representative long, medium, short, and very low amylose on ...

Rice is harvested in the Mid-South at moisture contents (MCs) typically ranging from 13% to 22% (wet basis). Because these MCs are greater than those safe for long-term storage, rice is dried within a fairly short period after harvest to 12% to 13% MC before being placed in storage. Once dried, “processing” of rough rice into milled rice takes place throughout the year and consists of several o...

This paper discusses a new way to solve the Vehicles Routing Problem (VRP) of logistics with the use of Taboo Search Algorithms (TSA) and optimize the new way and the distribution center based on Genetic Algorithms (GA). This study focuses on the incorporating of sugar industry and Milled Rice distribution center management in Thailand for the export channel. This provides a systematic and fram...

Direct-seeding rice has grown in popularity in recent years and is widespread in China. This study focused on the effects of pig slurry (PS) on grain quality and safety in direct-seeding rice. Application of more than 210 m3 ̈ hm ́2 increased rice yield and dry matter accumulation, compared with conventional chemical fertilizer treatment (CK2). At the heading and maturing stage, a high dosage of ...

Cereal Chem. 84(1):88–91 Head rice yield (HRY) is the primary parameter used to quantify rice milling quality. However, HRY is affected by the degree of milling (DOM) and thus HRY may not be comparable between different lots if the DOM is different. The objective of this study was to develop a method by which HRY values can be adjusted for varying DOM values when measured by surface lipid conte...

BACKGROUND It is widely believed that reducing the lignocellulosic biomass particle size would improve the biomass digestibility by increasing the total surface area and eliminating mass and heat transfer limitation during hydrolysis reactions. However, past studies demonstrate that particle size influences biomass digestibility to a limited extent. Thus, this paper studies the effect of partic...

Using 351 one-day weighted diet records, we selected foods providing vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber according to contribution analysis (CA) and multiple regression analysis (MRA). Vitamin C was supplied by various vegetables and fruits, and carotene was specifically derived from green-yellow vegetables based on MRA as well as CA. Vitamin A was provided by green-yellow vegetables, fruits, ...

Several important natural compounds, nutraceuticals–including vitamin E (tocotrienols, tocopherols) and oryzanols–have been shown to have important health benefits and are found in rice bran. This study was conducted to provide information regarding levels of these nutraceuticals within the rice kernel based on bran collected from successive milling but also to determine the level of nutraceuti...
