Abstract
The following 12 amino acids, valine, isoleusine, leusine, methionine, threonine, phenylalanine, tnyptophane, lysine, anginine, histidine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid, of globulin and glutelin obtained from Japanese white rice were determined by microbioassay method, and rice used for this assay was 4 kinds of non-glutinous and the same number of glutinous one.
Glutinous nice was found to be rich significantly in lysine and aspartic acid in globulin fraction of protein, whereas no marked difference was found in amino acids composition of gluterin between glutinous and non glutinous species.
