Abstract :
Investigations on the main compound of aroma rice, which is 2-Acetyl-1-pyrroline (2-AP), treated under different drying temperatures and milling degree was carried out. The results showed that the 2-AP was higher when paddy dried at 45°C, compared to 40°C and 50°C. The compound was extracted and absorbed using Solid Phase-Micro Extraction (SPME) fiber and analysed with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Milling degree is determined by percent of bran removal. High bran removal means higher milling degree. The finding showed that the 2-AP was higher in rice with higher percent bran removal.
