Rices differing in amylose content and starch final gelatinization temperatures (GT) were parboiled at 100, 120, and 127 C to determine the formation of amylose-lipid complex I (melting at less than 100 C) and complex II (melting at greater than 100 C), which are observed in model systems. In rices parboiled at 100 C, only the low-GT (less than 70 C) nonwaxy rices exhibited the amylose-lipid complex I melting, without residual (unmelted) starch crystallites. Intermediate-high-GT starches (greater than or equal to 70 C), with residual annealed starch, did not form complex I, nor did waxy IR65. The amylose-lipid complex II melting endotherm was observed in all rices parboiled at 120 and 127 C. It was highest for IR64 parboiled at 120 C. Reduction in hot-water-soluble amylose and increase in X-ray diffraction peak at 2theta = 19.9 degrees for V complex corresponded to maximum DeltaH of amylose-lipid complex II melting for the pressure- parboiled samples of intermediate-high-amylose rices.
