[Objective] The aim of this study was to explore the effects of storage temperature on pasting properties of brown rice.[Method] Rapid viscosity analyzer was used to determine the viscosity of brown rice under different storage temperatures（30,25,20 and 15 ℃）.[Result] The peak viscosity value increased with storage time prolonging.The higher the storage temperature was,the more rapidly the increasing of peak viscosity value;different storage temperatures and storage time showed significant effects on peak viscosity value of brown rice;the difference on peak viscosity value of brown rice under different storage temperatures was significant.The hot viscosity value of brown rice stored under 30 and 25 ℃ gradually increased with the storage time prolonging;and storage time and storage temperature showed significant effects on hot viscosity value;there was extremely significant difference on hot viscosity value of brown rice under 30,25 and 20,15 ℃.The breakdown value showed a first increasing and then decreasing trend with the storage time prolonging;storage temperature and storage time had extremely significant effect on the breakdown value of brown rice;the breakdown value of brown rice among each storage temperature was extremely significant.The final viscosity of brown rice increased with storage time prolonging.The higher the temperature was,the higher the increasing rate of final viscosity;storage time and temperature showed extremely significant effect on the final viscosity of brown rice;the difference on final viscosity among different storage temperature treatments was extremely significant.The changes on setback value of brown rice under different storage temperature treatments were different with the storage time prolonging;and the storage temperature showed extremely significant effect on the setback value of brown rice.[Conclusion] The study had provided theoretical basis for the storage of brown rice.
