Enzymatic treatment for the production of modified dietary fibre
Article Abstract:
An analysis of the effect of heat and enzyme treatment on the composition of dietary fibre in a plant by-product, that gives residual sugar beet pulp shows that the heat treatment processes have a different effect on the composition of the sugar beet pulp. Enzyme treatment is responsible for the excessive depolymerization of the fibre and for the generation of low molecular mass fragments. Heat treatment at 121 degree celsius increases the soluble/insoluble ratio by 300 percent.

Analytical method for the determination of inulin in yogurt enriched with soluble fibre
Article Abstract:
Beta-fructosidase, the enzyme invertase and obtaining via HPLC of glucose and fructose determined with various enzymic processes are involved in an analytical method for the determination of inulin in yogurt enriched with soluble fibre. Observations of the experiments with four samples of yoghurt are presented.
