  • Title: Effect of autoclaving on dietary fibre content of beet root (Beta vulgaris). Evaluation by different methods.
    Author: Villanueva MJ, Rodríguez MD, Redondo A, Saco MD.
    Journal: Z Lebensm Unters Forsch; 1996 Oct; 203(4):345-50. PubMed ID: 9123972.
    Abstract:
    Modifications of dietary fibre in beet root during autoclaving have been evaluated by different methods: acid detergent (raw = 1.45%; processed = 1.17%) and neutral detergent (raw = 2.30%; processed = 2.00%), the enzymatic-gravimetric method of Asp (raw = 3.35%; processed = 3.34%), HPLC (raw = 1.42%; processed = 1.60%) and 3,5-dimethylphenol (raw = 0.36; processed = 0.28%). The correlation between different methodologies was studied. Autoclaving was carried out at 121 degrees C under pressure for 15 min. Variance analysis indicated that quantitative variations originating in the thermic treatment were not statistically significant (P > 0.05).
