(ntroduction
Coix lacryma-jobi 52 is a distant relative of #ai6e in the 7aydae tribe of the grass
fa#ily, Poaceae or 8ra#inaeae2 It is co##only na#ed Jobs tear, adlay, #ayuen,
4hinese pearl barley and hato#ugi2 Jobs tear seeds are #ainly produced in /ast and
South0/ast Asia, including 4hina, Japan, the Philippines, 9ur#a, and Thailand2 The
seeds of Jobs tear are oval or egg shaped :ith ; ## dia#eter and have a #il!y :hite
to blac! outer surface after the dehulling process2 Jobs tear has long been used in
traditional 4hinese #edicine and as a nourishing cereal2 It is added in soups and
broths in the for# of flour or :hole grain2 In Japan and Thailand, a non0dairy drin!
fro# Jobs tears is available in the #ar!et as an alternative health food2 Ani#al and
hu#an clinical trials de#onstrated that the consu#ption of dehulled flour and seed of
Jobs tear can i#prove lipid #etabolis#, thereby decreasing the ris! of heart diseases2
In addition, it could reduce liver fat accu#ulation and protect fro# tu#or sti#ulating
co#pounds <4hang et al2, *%%$+ =u et al2, *%%;>2 So#e bioactive co#pounds in Jobs
tear, especially coi,enolide, inhibited tu#ors, prevented cancer and protected against
viral infection <?ung and 4hang, *%%$+ 4hun et al2, *%%)>2

At present, Jobs tear is used as polished grains for food applications2 An
increase in Jobs tear utili6ation can ta!e place if #illing is e#ployed to transfor# it
into Jobs tear flour, :hich could be incorporated into several food products as a
#a@or food ingredient2 "ecently, the consu#ption of :hole grain has beco#e popular
due to its retention of functional co#ponents2 ?o:ever, this full0fat flour has
li#itations in #a!ing food products2 The use of defatted Jobs tear flour is necessary
to #a!e Jobs tear #ore a#enable to several food applications2 Therefore, the
investigation of the functional properties of this flour is essential2 In addition, a
structural study of Jobs tear !ernel, :hich is i#portant for #illing process, has not
yet been published2 There are * i#portant cultivars of Jobs tear that are co##ercially
available in Thailand, one :ith :hite hus! and one :ith blac! hus!2 Therefore, the
ob@ective of this study :as to investigate the structure of the grain, che#ical
co#positions, and che#ical and physicoche#ical properties of :hole grain flour,
deger#ed flour, and starch of :hite and blac! hus! Jobs tear2

could be #entioned that the phenolic co#pounds of Jobs tear grains are evenly

and barley <4hoi et al2, *%%.>2 The FPP? radical scavenging ability is a #easure of
the conversion of the DPPH radical <FPP?[> to FPP?0? by an antio,idant giving
either an electron or hydrogen ato#2 Stratil et al2 <*%%.> reported that the total
phenolic content has a positive correlation :ith the free radical scavenging ability in
fruits and cereals2 Dbviously, the TP4 of the blac! hus! cultivar :as slightly higher
<pY%2%;> than that of the :hite one in both :hole and deger#ed flours resulting in
slightly higher FPP? activity2 In addition, it could be considered that the deger#ed
flours had a better antio,idant activity in ter#s of the ability to scavenge free radicals
of FPP? although significant differences :ere not found2 Antio,idant activity of
carbohydrate products could be affected by other co#ponents in the sa#ple as
reported by Ehang et al2 <*%%B>, Ehang et al2 <*%%)> and 4hirinang and Intarapichet
<*%%C> in that antio,idant activity of so#e #ushroo#s not al:ays solely depended on
the TP4 content only but also depended on other co#ponents of the #aterials such as

Si#ilar to the results of the FPP? radical scavenging ability, the reducing

penetration into the starch granules2 In contrast, the s:elling po:er of the AS :as
lo:er than that of the 9S2 It #ay be due to the difference in the crystallinity of the
starch of both cultivars as #entioned previously2 The ratio of crystalline to a#orphous
regions influences the interactions of :ater #olecules :ith the hydro,yl groups of
a#ylose and a#ylopectin in these regions+ thus, a higher proportion of the a#orphous
region or lo:er relative crystallinity contributes to a higher s:elling po:er <Tester
and 7orrison, BCC%>2
The solubility of Jobs tear flour and starches is sho:n in Figure .2 The lo:er
solubility of Jobs tear flours #ay be due to the protein0a#ylose co#ple, for#ation in
Jobs tear flour2 According to Po#eran6 <BCCB>, the for#ation of protein0a#ylose
co#ple, in native starch and flour resulted in a decreased s:elling po:er2 The
solubilities of the blac! Jobs tear flours :ere higher than those of the :hite ones due
to the higher content of a#ylose, lipid, and protein in the blac! flours2 "egarding the
:hole grain and deger#ed flours, the solubility of the :hole grain flour :as higher,
probably related to the greater lipid and ash of the :hole grain flour2 Aith increasing
te#peratures, the solubility of Jobs tear starches :as substantially increased up to ;-0
;CM, :hich is relatively high2 This #ight due to the fact that the Jobs tear starch
contained a high a#ount of s#all si6e starch #olecules and so#e big and s#all holes
appeared on the surface of the starch granules2 Upon s:elling, the surface holes #ay
allo: a nu#ber of the s#all starch #olecules to leach out into the :ater2

Jobs tear had the lo:er protein, lipid, and a#ylose contents, these co#ponents
apparently affected gelatini6ation behavior and viscosity2 In addition, the protein
co#ponent of Jobs tear #ight be a factor related to the lo:er s:elling volu#e of
blac! Jobs tear that, in turn, affected pea! viscosity and pasting te#perature <7artin
and Fit6gerald, *%%*>2 The deger#ed flours of both cultivars sho:ed higher pasting
viscosity profiles but lo:er pasting te#peratures than those of the :hole grain flours2
This :as a result of the lo:er lipid content for the deger#ed flour2
The Jobs tear starches had the higher pea! viscosities and lo:er trough
viscosities, final viscosities, and pasting te#peratures co#pared :ith the flours
<pY%2%;>2 This indicated that the interactions :ith the lipid and protein co#ponents
affected starch gelatini6ation and the pasting properties of starch in the flours2
Therefore, a high level of ther#al treat#ent should be e#ployed to coo! Jobs tear
flours, especially for those #ade fro# the blac! cultivar2

Conclusions
The ger# of Jobs tear is entrapped in the endosper# beneath the crease and
its si6e is relatively large2 Ahen the ger# :as re#oved, the protein content re#ained

the :hite Jobs tear flours :as higher but the pasting te#perature :as lo:er2 In
