| Popis: | This paper describes the rationale by which nonnutritive food products may be developed and examines an in vitro fermentation model in which large numbers of compounds may be easily screened, early in their development, for their potential to be fermented in the human colon. Tests of anaerobic digestibility of selected carbohydrates by human fecal bacteria allowed the correlation of carbohydrate structure with susceptibility to the bacterial degradation. These tests also provided information about the noncaloric and physiological properties of carbohydrates. Forty-six mono-, oligo-, and polysaccharides were investigated. A novel group of nonmetabolizable carbohydrates, S-C-(hydroxymethyl)hexoses, has been found |
