Abstract

Black glutinous rice is one of the commodities with great potential as a source of the antioxidants, bioactive compounds and fiber which are important for health. This study aims to determine the physicochemical comparison of black glutinous rice from Basala sub-district with glutinous rice obtained at the Kendari Central Market. This study used a research design consisting of a physicochemical characterization test on black glutinous rice from Basala sub-district with black glutinous rice wich is commonly marketed wich includes the preparation of samples black glutinous rice, then continued with physicochemical testing with includes. The results this lts showed that there differences in the chemical content and physical properties of black glutinous rice Basala and from the Kendari Central market. Basala black glutinous rice was significantly different in fat content and carbohydrate rice of Kendari Central market, and not significantly different in water content, ash content, protein and swelling power value. The results of physicochemical rice from Basala sub-district that is water content 12.75%, ash content 3,60%, protein 7,62%, fat content 3,81%, carbohydrate 72,22% and swelling power value 6,59%.
