Measurement of amylose content is commonly employed as the predictor of rice quality. Amylose is usually measured by absorbance of the amylose-iodine complex by a variety of ways. However, the effort to standardize the way amylose is measured is still working through the world of rice research. For comparing rice amylose analysis methods in Korea and Japan, major japonica rice-producing countries, rice samples with different amylose contents were selected. The rice samples were harvested, dried and milled at the National Institute of Crop Science, Rural Development Administration in Suwon, Republic of Korea. Amylose contents (AC) were analyzed using Concanavalin A method and modified Juliano methods, as representative methods in Korea and Japan, respectively. The AC of rice starch by Concanavalin A method were ranged 9.4～28.8%, on the other hand, the AC of rice flour by modified Juliano method had a wider range AC, 8.7～41.8%; for example, AC of semi-waxy varieties had lower values and AC of high amylose varieties had higher values in modified Juliano methods, even more than 10%. High correlation coefficients between retrogradation (or gelatinization) and AC using Concanavalin A would indicate that the Concanavalin A method could be more explanatory for evaluating rice quality like gelatinization and retrogradation.
