Summary

Microbial load and quality of rice grains which were exposed to electrons at different acceleration voltages of 170 to 200 kilovolts were examined to evaluate the efficacy of decontaminating rice with low-energy electrons. The results indicate that milling at a yield of 90% or lower removes the portion of rice exposed to electrons at 170 kilovolts and that treatment of brown rice with low-energy electrons enables the preparation of milled rice with extremely low levels of microbial load and little quality deterioration.
