The present investigation was conducted to evaluate the nutrient composition of four varieties of date fruit. The results of the study indicated that the variety Shamran had highest protein (2.77%) content and the variety Medjool the lowest (1.88%). Fat and crude fibre contents of date fruit varieties ranged from 0.17 to 0.50% and 1.71 to 2.22%, respectively. The variety Medjool had lowest amount of total soluble sugars (67.49g/100g) and reducing sugar (61.31g/100g). All the varieties of date fruit differed non-significantly among themselves for their non- reducing sugar content. The variety Khadrawi had the highest amount of starch content. Total dietary fiber (11.70g/100g) and soluble dietary fiber (3.34g/100g) were highest in variety Hillawi. All the four varieties of date fruit differed significantly from each other for their total dietary fiber content and soluble dietary fiber content. The varieties Khadrawi (8.46%), Hillawi (8.35%) and Shamran (7.94%) had significantly (p£ 0.05) higher insoluble dietary fiber as compared to variety Medjool (4.25%). The variety Shamran had highest amount of calcium (195.33mg/100g) and zinc (1.81mg/100g). The variety Medjool contained lowest amount of calcium (70.33mg/100g), iron (1.91mg/100g) and potassium (713mg/100g) while the highest amount of phosphorus (52.66mg/100g). A non-significant (p£0.05) difference was observed in magnesium content of all the varieties. Polyphenol content of date fruits from different varieties ranged from 228.79 to 253.21 mg/100g.

The objective of the recent study was to evaluate the effect of banana pseudostem flour (EBP) to the organoleptic properties, levels of dietary fiber, resistant starch and antioxidants of canna starch-based food bar. The research design was true experimental in the form of completely randomized design with 6 treatments using canna starch: banana pseudostem flour. The six treatments were 100:0, 95:5, 90:10, 85:15, 80:20, and 75:25 ratio. The best food bar was determined by scoring through organoleptic test, content of soluble dietary fiber and antioxidants. Food bars processed with mixture of banana pseudostem flour proportion 85:15 was selected as the best food bar with a score of color attribute 3.12±0.08, aroma 3.00±0.06, flavor 3.04±0.18, texture 3.16±0.12, soluble dietary fiber content 0.83±0.07% db, insoluble dietary fibers of 6.75±0.14% db, total dietary fiber 7.58±0.13% db, resistant starch 6.54±0.24% db, total phenolic 105.75±0.64 mg/100 g, antioxidant activity 6.97±0.77% RSA, color brightness (L*) 52.52±0.60 and hardness level 5.08±1.95 N. The substitution of banana pseudostem flour on the canna starch-based food bar increased level of soluble dietary fiber 0.83%, total dietary fiber 4.81%, resistant starch 2.89%, total phenolic 43.01 mg/100 g and antioxidant activity 3.98% RSA as well as sensory panelists preferred. The higher the mixture pseudostem flour proportion, the higher the tendency of the levels of dietary fiber, resistant starch, total phenolic and antioxidant activity.

The black gram husk a by-product of black gram milling was collected and proceed to washing. The washed and unwashed samples were separated based on the required particle size (900µm, 450µm). The samples obtained were analyzed for their proximate composition and dietary fiber content. The washed husk samples had shown least amount of fat and ash content ranging from 0.53 to 0.77% and 1.04 to 2.47% respectively. The protein content of the samples ranged from 14.43 to 18.65%. The crude fiber content was found to be highest in WBH ranging from 39.9 to 42.13% due to the removal of tailing starches and other coteledonous material. It was observed that the 450WBH sample had the highest amount of Total dietary Fiber (TDF), Insoluble Dietary Fiber (IDF) and Soluble Dietary Fiber (SDF) content. The TDF content of 450WBH was 90.19%. The obtained data was analyzed by paired comparison (t-Test).

Abstract Grape pomace is a rich source of dietary fibers and phenolic compounds; it has been added to bakery products to enhance their dietary fiber content and antioxidant activity. Nevertheless, the Insoluble Dietary Fiber (IDF) content of grape pomace is significantly higher than the Soluble Dietary Fiber (SDF) content, the IDF/SDF ratio of bakery products was much higher than the recommended value of 3:1 from the dietetic associations. In this research, grape pomace was treated with cellulase preparation to partially convert IDF to SDF. The appropriate conditions of the cellulolytic treatment were as follows: initial moisture content of grape pomace of 7.5 g water/g dry basis, cellulase concentration of 6 U/g dry basis and treatment time of 1 h. Under these conditions, the SDF content increased by 20% and the IDF/SDF ratio decreased by 23.2%. Then, the enzyme-treated grape pomace (ETGP) and untreated grape pomace (UGPM) were separately mixed with wheat flour for cookie formulation; the grape pomace ratio was 20% of the composite flour weight. The use of ETGP or UTGP significantly improved the content of total, insoluble and soluble dietary fiber, total phenolics, anthocyanin of cookies as well as their antioxidant activity measured by DPPH and FRAP assays. Cookies supplemented with ETGP or UTGP had increased hardness and reduced brightness. The enzymatic treatment of grape pomace did not affect the total dietary fiber and antioxidant activity of cookies; however, their IDF/SDF ratio decreased to 12% and the value of 3.7 was close to the recommended ratio from the dietetic associations. Furthermore, the preference scores of ETGP added cookies and UTGP added cookies were higher than that of the control cookies without grape pomace addition.

Purple sweet potato is one type of tuber that is rich in carbohydrates in the form of starch and fiber. It also contains purple anthocyanin pigments. In this research, purple sweet potato was processed into flour and starch. Starch processing solid waste can be utilized by processing it into fiber flour. Purple sweet potato flour and fiber were then used as the basis for making biscuits at a ratio of 75: 25 and compared to biscuits made from 100% purple sweet potato flour and wheat flour. The resulting biscuits were then analyzed for their chemical characteristics. The results showed that the ratio of flour gave a very significantly different effect on the value of water content, total dietary fiber content, insoluble dietary fiber content and % nutritional adequacy rate of food fiber, and had no significant effect on the value of ash content, protein content, fat content, content carbohydrates, total flavonoids, insoluble dietary fiber content, calorie intake and fulfillment of daily energy adequacy.

This method determines total dietary fiber (TDF) in foods and food ingredients, as defined by Codex Alimentarius. The method measures soluble and insoluble dietary fiber, including resistant starch, as well as nondigestible oligosaccharides. In this method, enzymatic digestion is used to simulate human intestinal digestion. Insoluble dietary fiber (IDF) and soluble dietary fiber that precipitates in 78% ethanol (SDFP) are separated by filtration and quantified gravimetrically. Additionally, highly soluble oligosaccharides (SDFS) are quantified by chromatographic separation. TDF is reported as the sum of the gravimetric and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) results. The digestion and chromatographic conditions of this method have been modified from those of AACC Approved Methods 32-45.01 and 32-50.01 in an attempt to better simulate human digestion and to allow for more exact quantitation.
