The result shows that the distribution of arsenic in seed parts was uneven, as concentration in rice seed was embryo > seed capsule > chaff > endosperm, and that in wheat seed was embryo > seed capsule > endosperm. Arsenic was mainly accumulated in endosperm, and mainly in the form of protein-binding. With the removal of chaff, coarse rice bran and fine rice bran in the processing, the content of arsenic decreased by 16.51%, 12.41% and 10.26%, respectively. Similarly, with the removal of coarse wheat bran and fine wheat bran, it decreased by 22.0% and 45.6%, respectively.Read More
