Abstract: γ-aminobutyric acid(GABA) content in Duoxi1, Teyou175 and Weiyou77 were anglicized from germinated brown rice by different treated methods. These showed that GABA content in different varieties were significantly distinct. Compared with Teyou175 and Weiyou77, Duoxi1 was significantly distinct, which was 244mg/kg. The content of GABA in germinated brown rice was over 5 times than un-germinated brown rice. While soaking and germinating, GABA content in germinated brown rice increased but decreased when it reached the top. Gibberellin can improve enrichment of GABA. And drying and insolation methods had not influenced on GABA content in germinated brown rice.
