Changes in Bioactive Constituents in Black Rice Metabolites Under Different Processing Treatments by Bin Hong, Shan Zhang, Di Yuan, Shan Shan, Jing-Yi Zhang, Di-Xin Sha, Da-Peng Chen, Wei-Wei Yin, Shu-Wen Lu, Chuan-Ying Ren

“…In this study, liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was employed to conduct untargeted metabolomics analysis on black rice (BR), milled black rice (MBR), wet germinated black rice (WBR), and high-temperature and high-pressure-treated WBR (HTP-WBR). A total of 6988 positive ions and 7099 negative ions (multiple difference ≥1.2 or ≤0.8333, <i>p</i> < 0.05, and variable importance in projection ≥1) were isolated, and 98 and 100 differential metabolic pathways were identified between the different samples in the positive and negative ion modes, respectively. …”
