The lipids content and neutral lipid component of milled rice grain were studied for four nonglutionous and two glutinous varieties grown in Korea. The average total lipid contents in nonglutinous and glutinous varieties were 0.94% and 1.78% by dry weight basis, respectively. The ratios of neutral lipid, glycolipid and phospholipid in the total lipid were 76.5 : 14.8 : 8.6 in the nonglutionous and 82.4 : 11.1 : 6.5 in the glutinous, respectively. Main classes of the neutral lipids were triglycerides, free fatty acids, steryl esters, free sterols, monoglycerids and diglycerides in both of nonglutinous and glutinous, and no significance was observed in the content of the classes between both varieties. The major fatty acid composition of total and neutral lipids were linoleic, oleic and palmitic acids in both of nonglutinous and glutinous varieties.
