Abstract
The level of ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in pigmented rice was quantitatively and qualitatively determined by high pressure liquid chromatography/fluorescence detection (HPLC/FLD). In this study, the recovery rate and limit of detection (LOD) of GABA were 122.4${\pm}$2.4% and 0.23 ${\mu}g/g$, respectively. The geminating pigmented rice samples, which were harvested in Paju, Korea, were soaked in water at $18^{\circ}C$ for 20 hr. After soaking, the samples were germinated at $30^{\circ}C$ for about 24 hr. GABA content was highest (293.0 ${\mu}g/g$) in the germinated red rice. Furthermore, GABA levels in the germinated rice increased significantly by up to 11.1 and 24.7-fold as compared to non-germinated rice and milled rice, respectively. The GABA concentrations of non-germinated rice, with the exception of red rice, were significantly higher than those of milled rice by 7.6-20.6-fold.
