초록

The purpose of this study was to investigate the bioavailability and nutritive functions of Nak-Dong rice or genetically modified β-carotene-biofortified rice (GM rice) in an experimental animal model. Wistar rats fed either GM rice or Nak-Dong rice did not show differences in bioavailability, growth, organ weights, or visceral fat, suggesting that the nutrient content of GM rice is compositionally equivalent to that of conventional Nak-Dong rice. In addition, GM rice showed improved nutritive function in terms of increased defecation, decreased lipids, and decreased blood glucose. copyright © 2014 The Korean Society of Food Science and Technology.
