Notes:
We previously reported that nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) micro imaging detected the hollows in cooked rice but required a specialist to operate equipment. Convenient detection of hollows is useful in the characterization of cooked rice. X-ray imaging and light transmittance photography were studied as alternatives to NMR micro imaging. X-ray imaging detected about 50% of all hollows. Light transmittance photography detected almost all hollows in cooked rice (Oryza sativa cv. Koshihikari) effectively and rapidly, relatively quantifying hollow sizes and numbers.
