Moisture, proteins, lipids and ashes were determined by the ICC standard methods 110/1, 105/2, 136, 104/1 respectively [13 ]. Protein content was estimated using the conversion factor 5.70 for wheat flours and 6.25 for BSG flour. Total dietary fiber (TDF) content was measured according to Lee et al. [14 ] using a reagent kit (K-TDFR, Megazyme Int., Wicklow, Ireland).

The dry matter (dm) content of the wheat cookies, as well as the amounts of protein, fat, and ash were measured using the standard methods recommended by the Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC) [78 ]. Moisture percentage was determined by the oven dry method (AOAC method 940.26) using a laboratory drier (SML 30/250, Zalmed, Warszawa, Poland); ash was determined by incineration (550 °C) of known weights of the samples in a muffle furnace (FCF5SH, Czylok, Jastrzębie-Zdrój, Poland) (AOAC method 930.05); crude fat was determined by the Soxtec automated extraction method (AOAC method 930.09) [78 ] using a Soxtec Avanti’s 2050 Auto Extraction Foss Unit (Tecator, Hillerød, Sweden); protein (N × 6.25) was determined by the Kjeldahl method using a FOSS Digester and Autodistillation Unit, KjeltecTM 8200 (Tecator Foss, Hillerød, Sweden) (AOAC method 978.04); the total dietary fiber was determined with a commercial kit (K-TDFR, Megazyme International Ireland, Bray Business Park, Bray, Co. Wicklow, Ireland). The carbohydrate content was determined by difference: 100 − (moisture + ash + protein + fat).

Extraction and Purification of Indigestible Tremella Polysaccharides

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The fruiting bodies of T. fuciformis were obtained from Well Youth Biotech Co., Ltd. (Taichung, Taiwan). Sawdust was used as the main cultivation substrate. The moisture content in the fresh fruiting bodies was 89–93%. To prepare the polysaccharides referred to by Yang et al., previously published [11 (link)], the fruiting bodies were cut into pieces and extracted by 10-fold of distilled water by weight at 80 °C for 4 h. Filtration was applied to remove debris, and 4-fold volume of 95% ethanol at 4 °C was added to the filtrate for 12 h to precipitate crude polysaccharides. A commercial total dietary fiber assay kit (K-TDFR, Megazyme, Ireland) was applied to the crude polysaccharides for removing the starch and proteins and obtained the indigestible T. fuciformis polysaccharide (TFPS) according to the AOAC 993.19 method.

Kimchi By-Product Dietary Fiber Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Commercial soft flour (CJ Co., Seoul, South Korea), sugar (CJ Co.), butter (Seoulmilk ICA, Seoul, South Korea), skim milk powder, vanilla powder, baking powder, eggs, and milk were purchased from a local market in Korea. Kimchi by‐products were obtained from a kimchi factory, washed to remove soil and dirt, drained, and dried at 70°C for 24 hr, using a hot air drier (Lequip, Hwaseong, Gyeonggi‐do, Korea). After cooling to room temperature (24°C), the material was ground and strained through a 50‐mesh sieve (297 μm). The powder was stored in a polyethylene bag at −18°C. A total dietary fiber (TDF) assay kit (K‐TDFR) was obtained from Megazyme International (Bray Co., Wicklow, Ireland). MES (2‐N‐morpholino ethanesulfonic acid) hydrate and Trizma base were purchased from Sigma‐Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA).

Enzymatic Dietary Fiber Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The total fibers were determined by the enzymatic-gravimetric method (AOAC Method 985.29), described by Prosky et al. (17 (link)), using the complete dietary fibers assay kit K-TDFR (Megazyme Int., Wicklow, Ireland), The method requires phosphate buffer, pH 6.0 and the following enzymes: heat-stable α-amylase, protease, and amyloglucosidase. Heat stable α-amylase depolymerizes starch, protease depolymerizes and dissolves proteins, while amyloglucosidase converts starch into glucose. After the enzymatic treatment, the sample is corrected for possible mineral and nitrogen residue. Total dietary fibers were measured by gravimetric analysis.

Proximate Composition Analysis of GFB

The proximate compositions of the selected GFB formulations were determined according to the AOAC methods (AOAC, 2005). The moisture content was calculated based on weight loss after the sample was heated in an oven at 105°C. Ash content was determined by incineration in muffle furnace at 550°C. Protein content was determined by total nitrogen, obtained by micro‐Kjeldahl, considering conversion factor of %N × 6.25. Fat was determined by the Soxhlet method. Total dietary fiber by enzymatic–gravimetric, using a commercial assay kit (K‐TDFR, Megazyme International Ireland Limited, Bray, Ireland). Available carbohydrates were calculated by difference [100 ‐ (moisture + ash + protein + fat + dietary fiber)]. Each value was the average of three determinations.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
