[Objective]The processing technique for the highest germination rate and content of γ-aminobutyric acid(GABA) of brown rice was explored.[Method]The effect of the soaking treatment and the germination condition on the water absorption,germination rate and level of GABA of brown rice was experimented with the design of single factor and orthogonal method.[Results]The brown rice soaked in the water with 40 ℃ was with fastest ability I n water-absorption and it would be saturated after 20-24 hours,which absorp...
