See Tables997.02A and B for the results of the interlaboratory study supporting the acceptance of the method.A.PrincipleMethod uses culture plates of dry medium supplemented with an-tibiotics,dye to enhance visualization of growth,and cold H2O-soluble gelling agent.Undiluted or diluted suspensions are added to plates at a rate of1mL/plate.Suspension is spread over ca 30cm2growth area.Gelling agent is allowed to solidify,plates are incubated,and yeasts and molds are counted.B.Apparatus and Reagent(a)Yeast and mold count plates.—Contain nutrients supple-mented with chlortetracycline,chloramphenicol,cold H2O-soluble gelling agent,and dye sensitive to presence of phosphatase (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate)that enhances visualiza-tion of yeast and mold growth.Circular growth area of single plate contains thirty1×1cm squares outlined on film base.(Available as 3M™Petrifilm™Yeast and Mold Count plates from3M Microbiol-ogy Products,3M Center,Bldg.275-5W-05,St.Paul, MN55144-1000,USA.)(b)Plastic spreader.—Provided with Petrifilm plates,designed to spread suspension evenly over plate growth area.(c)Pipets.—Serological pipet or pipetting syringe accurately de-livering1.0mL.(d)Colony counter.—Standard apparatus,Quebec model preferred, or one providing equivalent magnification(1.5×)and visibility. (e)Blender.—High speed mechanical blender rotating at 10000–12000rpm,or stomacher.(f)Dilution water.—Butterfield’s phosphate-buffered dilution water.Place34g KH2PO4into1L volumetric flask and dissolve in 500mL H2O.Adjust pH to7.2with1M NaOH(40g/L)and dilute to volume with H2O.Autoclave15min at121°C.Store stock solution in refrigerator.Prepare dilution blanks by pipetting1.25mL stock solution into1L volumetric flask and dilute to volume with H2O. Dispense90or99±1mL into bottles.Autoclave15min at121°C. C.General InstructionsStore unopened yeast and mold count plate foil pouches at≤8°C. After opening,return unused plates to foil pouch.Seal pouch by folding and taping the open end.Store resealed foil pouch at≤8°C in a dry e plates within1month after opening.Exposure of yeast and mold count plates to temperatures>25°C and/or humidities>50%RH can affect performance of plates.After use,plates contain viable yeast and/or mold cultures.Auto-clave used plates15min at121°C prior to discarding.D.Preparation of Test SuspensionAseptically prepare1:10or greater dilution of food product with dilution H2O.Blend or stomach2min and plate.Prepare additional dilutions as required.E.AnalysisPlace yeast and mold count plate on flat surface.Lift top film,hold pipet perpendicular to plate,and carefully inoculate1mL test sus-pension onto center of film base.Place top film down onto inoculum. Lift plastic spreader using circular handle.Align center of spreader with approximate center of plate.Distribute suspension evenly using gentle downward pressure on center of spreader.Do not slide spreader across film.Remove spreader and leave plate un-disturbed1min to let gel solidify.Place plates in incubator in horizontal position,clear side up,in stacks not exceeding20units.Incubate plates5days at20–25°C. Count plates promptly after incubation period.Yeasts appear as blue-green or off-white in color and form small defined colonies. Mold colonies are usually blue but may also assume their natural pigmentation(e.g.,black,yellow,green).They tend to be larger and more diffuse than yeast colonies.To calculate yeast and mold count,multiply total number of yeast and mold colonies/plate(or average number of colonies/plate,if counting duplicate plates of same dilution)by appropriate dilution factor.When counting colonies on duplicate plates of consecutive dilutions,calculate mean number of colonies for each dilution be-fore determining average yeast and mold count.Estimated counts can be made on plates with>150colonies and should be reported as estimated counts.In making such counts,de-termine average count/1cm2and multiply by30(circular growth area is ca30cm2).High numbers of yeast colonies may cause the entire growth area to turn blue.High numbers of mold colonies may cause growth area to turn blue,black,yellow,etc.When this occurs,do not make estimated counts, but further dilute and plate test suspension to obtain more accurate count.

Revised: March 1996 32.1.17AOAC Official Method 991.43Total, Soluble, and Insoluble Dietary Fiber in FoodsEnzymatic-Gravimetric Method, MES–TRIS BufferFirst Action 1991Final Action 1994Codex-Adopted—AOAC Method*(Applicable to processed foods, grain and cereal products, fruits, and vegetables.)Method Performance:See Table 991.43A for method performance data.A. PrincipleDuplicate samples of dried foods, fat-extracted if containing >10%fat, undergo sequential enzymatic digestion by heat stable α-amylase,protease, and amyloglycosidase to remove starch and protein. For total dietary fiber (TDF), enzyme digestate is treated with alcohol to precipi-tate soluble dietary fiber before filtering, and TDF residue is washed with alcohol and acetone, dried, and weighed. For insoluble and soluble dietary fiber (IDF and SDF), enzyme digestate is filtered, and residue (IDF) is washed with warm water, dried and weighed. For SDF,combined filtrate and washes are precipitated with alcohol, filtered,dried, and weighed. TDF, IDF, and SDF residue values are corrected for protein, ash, and blank.B.

Add 93.5 mL 6N HCl to ca 700 mL H 2O in 1 L volumetric flask. Dilute to 1 L with H 2O.D. Enzyme PurityTo ensure absence of undesirable enzymatic activities and pres-ence of desirable enzymatic activities, run standards listed in Table 991.43B each time enzyme lot changes or at maximum interval of 6months.E. Sample Preparation and DigestionPrepare samples as in 985.29E (see 45.4.07) (if fat content of sample is unknown, defat before determining dietary fiber). For high sugar samples, desugar before determining dietary fiber by extract-ing 2–3 times with 85% ethanol, 10 mL/g, decanting, and then drying overnight at 40°.Run 2 blanks/assay with samples to measure any contribution from reagents to residue.Weigh duplicate 1.000 0.005 g samples (M 1 and M 2), accurate to 0.1 mg, into 400 mL (or 600 mL) tall-form beakers. Add 40 mL MES–TRIS buffer solution, pH 8.2, to each. Stir on magnetic stirrer until sample is completely dispersed (to prevent lump formation,which would make test material inaccessible to enzymes).Add 50 µL heat-stable α-amylase solution, stirring at low speed.Cover beakers with Al foil, and incubate in 95–100° H 2O bath 15min with continuous agitation. Start timing once bath temperature reaches 95° (total of 35 min is normally sufficient).Remove all beakers from bath, and cool to 60°. Remove foil.Scrape any ring from inside of beaker and disperse any gels in bottom of beaker with spatula. Rinse beaker walls and spatula with 10 mL H 2O.Add 100 µL protease solution to each beaker. Cover with Al foil,and incubate 30 min at 60 1° with continuous agitation. Start timing when bath temperature reaches 60°.Remove foil. Dispense 5 mL 0.561N HCl into beakers while stirring. Adjust pH to 4.0–4.7 at 60°, by adding 1N NaOH solution or 1N HCl solution. (Note: It is important to check and adjust pH while solutions are 60° because pH will increase at lower tempera-tures.) (Most cereal, grain, and vegetable products do not require pH adjustment. Once verified for each laboratory, pH checking procedure can be omitted. As a precaution, check pH of blank routinely; if outside desirable range, check samples also.)Add 300 µL amyloglucosidase solution while stirring. Cover with Al foil, and incubate 30 min at 60 1° with constant agitation.

Determination of Total Dietary FiberTo each digested sample, add 225 mL (measured after heating) 95% ethanol at 60°. Ratio of ethanol to sample volume should be 4:1. Remove from bath, and cover beakers with large sheets of Al foil. Let precipitate form 1 h at room temperature.Wet and redistribute Celite bed in previously tared crucible B(b), using 15 mL 78% ethanol from wash bottle. Apply suction to crucible to draw Celite onto fritted glass as even mat.Filter alcohol-treated enzyme digestate through crucible. Using wash bottle with 78% ethanol and rubber spatula, quantitatively transfer all remaining particles to crucible. (Note: If some samples form a gum, trapping the liquid, break film with spatula.)Using vacuum, wash residue 2 times each with 15 mL portions of 78% ethanol, 95% ethanol, and acetone. Dry crucible containing residue overnight in 105° oven. Cool crucible in desiccator ca 1 h. Weigh crucible, containing dietary fiber residue and Celite, to near-est 0.1 mg, and calculate residue weight by subtracting weight of dry crucible with Celite, B(b).Use one duplicate from each sample to determine protein, by method 960.52 (see 12.1.07), using N× 6.25 as conversion factor. For ash analysis, incinerate second duplicate 5 h at 525°. Cool in desiccator, and weigh to nearest 0.1 mg. Subtract weight of crucible and Celite, B(b), to determine ash weight.G. Determination of Insoluble Dietary FiberWet and redistribute Celite bed in previously tared crucible, B(b), using ca 3 mL H2O. Apply suction to crucible to draw Celite into even mat. Filter enzyme digestate, from E, through crucible into filtration flask. Rinse beaker, and then wash residue 2 times with 10 mL 70° H2O. Combine filtrate and water washings, transfer to pretared 600 mL tall-form beaker, and reserve for determination of soluble dietary fiber, H. Using vacuum, wash residue 2 times each with 15 mL portions of 78% ethanol, 95% ethanol, and acetone. (Note: Delay in washing IDF residues with 78% ethanol, 95% ethanol, and acetone may cause inflated IDF values.)Use duplicates to determine protein and ash as in F.H. Determination of Soluble Dietary FiberProceed as for insoluble dietary fiber determination through in-struction to combine the filtrate and water washings in pretared 600 mL tall-form beakers.

Assay the2blank digestions(i.e.,2beakers and2crucibles)in an identical manner.Let solutions stand overnight to form a precipitate.Filter by suc-tion,using a water aspirator or vacuum pump,through1.0g Celite layered on a Pyrex glass crucible filter that previously has been dried to constant weight.Wash the500mL tall-form beaker and the resi-due3times with20mL78%ethanol,C(b),2times with10mL95% ethanol,C(a),and2times with10mL acetone,C(c). Quantitatively transfer filtrate and washings to a1L round bottom flask.Dry residue in an air oven at105C overnight and record weight.This residue weight,minus the protein,ash,and blank resi-due weights represents the weight of the dietary fiber(IDF+ HMWSDF)recovered by the AOAC method.(b)Filtrate recovery,desalting,and LC analysis.—Evaporate with a rotary evaporator to near dryness.Dissolve the residue with a minimum amount of water,C(d),and transfer quantitatively to a 50mL volumetric flask.Add10mL of10mg/mL glycerol LC stan-dard and dilute to volume with water,C(d).Transfer contents of the 50mL volumetric flask to a column(75cm15mm id)containing 25g each,thoroughly mixed,of Amberlite IRA-67(m-1)and Amberlite200CT(HG)H(m-2)prepared just before use.Wash ex-tract through the column with250mL water,C(d),at the rate of 0.8mL/min.Collect250mL eluant from the ion exchange column and quanti-tatively transfer into a500mL round bottom flask.Evaporate to near dryness and quantitatively transfer to a10mL volumetric flask and dilute to volume with water,C(d).Transfer the contents of the 10mL volumetric flask to a10mL disposable syringe,B(o),and fil-ter through a0.2m filter,B(k).Use a50L LC glass syringe,B(u), to fill the20L injection loop on the LC,B(f).(c)Determining the response factor for dextrose;dextrose is equivalent to RMD in LC response.—Each chromatogram must be evaluated or standardized for the RI response of RMD.This is ac-complished using glycerol standard,C(q).The peak areas,represent-ing concentration,obtained by LC analysis of equal amounts of RMD and dextrose are equivalent.Glycerol is used as the internal standard but its peak area compared to the peak area for an equal amount of dextrose or RMD is not equivalent.A glycerol standard curve is there-fore prepared to obtain a“response factor”to calculate the exact amount of RMD in a chromatogram of each test portion.Prepare3solutions in individual100mL volumetric flasks con-taining the same amount of glycerol and3levels of dextrose.It is im-portant to know and use the reported content(i.e.,>99.5%purity)of both glycerol and dextrose standards as reported by suppliers.Accu-rately weigh0.5,1.0,and2.0g dextrose into3separate100mL volu-metric flasks,respectively.To each flask add10mL of the 100mg/mL glycerol standard,C(q).Dilute each flask to volume with water,C(d).These3flasks represent the standard solutions to calculate the“response factor”for dextrose that is used to determine the amount of RMD as displayed in LC chromatograms.Use a50L LC syringe,B(u),to fill the20L injection loop for each standard glycerol–dextrose solution.Obtain the values for the peak areas of dextrose and glycerol from the3chromatograms.The reciprocal of the slope obtained by comparing the ratio of peak area of dextrose/peak area of glycerol(y-axis)to the ratio of the weight of dextrose/weight of glycerol(x-axis)is the“response factor.”The av-erage“response factor”among laboratories is0.82,varying slightly in each laboratory.Response factor=1/(PA-dex/PA-gly)(Wt-gly/Wt-dex) where PA-dex=peak area dextrose;PA-gly=peak area glycerol; Wt-dex=weight of dextrose in standard;Wt-gly=weight of glyc-erol in standard.A flow diagram for a combined enzymatic-gravimetric method and LC determination is shown in Figure2001.03B.E.CalculationAll values used in calculations are in mg,except for percent(%) values.Assay each test portion in duplicate,resulting in2test portion weight values,test portion weight and test portion weight(prime);2cruciblesfor eachblankandtestportion,blankandblank(prime);and test portion and test portion(prime).(a)Calculate average%(IDF+HMWSDF)as fol-lows.—(1)Blank ash(Ab)=(ash+Celite+blank crucible)–(Celite +blank crucible).(2)Blank residue weight(BRW)=((BR+BR)/2)–(Pb+Ab)where Pb=blank protein,determined by micro-Kjeldahl procedure;BR=weight of first blank crucible with residue;BR=weight of second blank cruci-ble with residue;Ab=weight of blank ash from step(a)(1).

(Itami City,Hyogo,Japan).The moisture content of the product is 2.7%and DE is10.5.The RMD is produced by the pyrolysis and subsequent enzyme treatment of corn starch.It is an aggregate of glucose polymers with the MW distribution of180(DP-1)to >10000(DP-62)daltons,but the average MW is2000daltons.It contains1–4and1–6glucosidic bonds,which originate from starch and1–2and1–3glucosidic bonds that are created by transglucosidation during pyrolysis.Internal utilization of RMD by in vitro and in vivo tests show that <10%is digested and absorbed in the small intestine.Approximately 50%of the products are fermented in the large intestine and ca40%of the products are excreted into the feces.In order to distinguish this substance from conventional maltodextrin(digestible),the term“re-sistant”is added and used to describe this compound.The sugar,oligosaccharide,and polysaccharide composition of the LMWRMD fraction of the RMD has been determined before and after hydrolytic enzyme treatments and is shown in Fig-ure2001.03A.The distribution of these oligosaccharides is not sig-nificantly changed when RMD is treated with hydrolytic enzymes. To assess the oligosaccharide moieties and their distribution in the LMWRMD of RMD,corn syrup solids were used as a standard source of these oligosaccharides(Figure2001.03A).The nondigestible portions of RMD consists of DP units of3(DP-3)and above(Figure2001.03A).These nondigestible oligosaccharides and polysaccharides constitute>90%of RMD.Approximately60% of RMD consist of polymers having>10DP.References:J.AOAC Int.83,1013(2000);(future issue).。

AOAC法检测聚葡萄糖的方法

INTRODUCTION:Dietary fibre is a mixture of complex organic substances including, non-swellable,more or less hydrophobic compounds such as cutins, suberins and lignins;as well as a range of hydrophilic compounds such as soluble and insoluble polysaccharides and non digestable oligosaccharides.The procedures for the determination of total dietary fibre as outlined in this booklet are based on the methods of Lee et al.1and Prosky et al.2,3(AOAC 991.43,AOAC 985.29,AACC 32-07 and AACC 32-05).However,the enzymes in the MegazymeT otal Dietary Fibre Kit can also be used in other dietary fibre analytical methods such as AACC Method 32-21 and AACC method 32-06.PRINCIPLE (TOTAL DIETARY FIBRE):T otal dietary fibre (TDF) is determined on duplicate samples of dried and defatted (if fat content is >10%) material.Samples are cooked at ~100°C with heat stable α-amylase to give gelatinisation,hydrolysis and depolymerisation of starch;incubated at 60°C with protease (to solubilise and depolymerise proteins) and amyloglucosidase (to hydrolyse starch fragments to glucose);and treated with four volumes of ethanol to precipitate soluble fibre and remove depolymerised protein and glucose (from starch).The residue is filtered;washed with 78% ethanol,95% ethanol,and acetone;dried;and weighed.One duplicate is analysed for protein and the other is incubated at 525°C to determine ash.The TDF is the weight of the filtered and dried residue less the weight of the protein and ash.The major advantage of the Megazyme TDF T est Kit is that it contains high purity enzymes devoid of interfering activities,and the activities of the enzymes are standardised.The importance of standardisedα-amylase activity in the measurement of resistant starch is well recognised.Megazyme amyloglucosidase is essentially devoid of cellulase,whereas other commonly used preparations contain significant contamination with this activity,which leads to solubilisation and underestimation of β-glucan.All Megazyme TDF enzymes are supplied in a ready-to-use,stabilised,liquid form.

oven.17.Proceed with Steps 13 and 14 of IDF method.The pH of MES-TRIS buffer (i.e.8.2 at 24°C) reaches 6.9-7.2 at85-90°C and 7.4-7.6 at 55-60°C.Note that pH optimum ofheat-stable α-amylase moves from pH 6.0 at 60°C toward pH7.0 at 90°C.b.The volume of thermostable α-amylase used has been reducedfrom 200 µL to 50 µL due to the higher activity of the enzymeemployed here.c.Any ring left around the beaker after heat-stable α-amylaseincubation is scraped,if necessary.With pipettor,10 mL ofwater is added to rinse spatula and side wall of beaker afterheat-stable α-amylase incubation.d.No pH adjustment is needed for protease action,thus noNaOH is added to the incubation mixture.e.For amyloglucosidase action,5 mL of 0.561 N HCl solution isadded.f.For TDF determination,the amount of 95% EtOH added forthe precipitation step is 225 mL instead of 280 mL.ForSDF/IDF determination,weight of filtrate and washing solutionis adjusted to 80 g instead of 100 g.Thus,320 mL of 95% EtOH at 60°C is added.Alternatively,weigh combined solution offiltrate and washing solution and add 4 vols.95% EtOH.T otalfiltration volume is reduced to 375-400 mL with thismodification.(See Figs.1 and 2.)2.It is important to leave beaker in 60°C water bath until it is readyfor pH adjustment,since pH of solution increases at a lowertemperature.Normally,additional pH adjustment (with 5% HCl or 5% NaOH) is not required for most oat,barley,wheat,and corn products.For such known products,one can skip the pH checking procedure after addition of 5 mL of 0.561 N HCl to sample.Routine checking of pH of blank is recommended as a disastercheck.If blank is not within desirable pH range,samples shouldalso be checked.3.There is some indication that delay in washing IDF residues with95% EtOH and acetone may cause inflated IDF values.Thus,it is suggested that IDF residues not be washed toward end ofSDF/IDF procedures.4.In some samples,a gum is formed,trapping liquid.If this occurs,break layer of film with spatula.REFERENCES:1.Lee,S.C.,Prosky,L.and DeVries,J.W.,(1992).Determination oftotal,soluble,and insoluble,dietary fiber in foods - enzymatic-gravimetric method,MES-TRIS buffer:Collaborative

Barley ß-glucan (10 mL,10 mg/mL) in sodium acetate buffer (50 mM, pH 4.5) was incubated with amyloglucosidase (0.2 mL of preparation as used in the TDF assay) at 40°C in a T ype C,U-tube viscometer. Viscosity measurements were taken at various time intervals,and the specific viscosity was calculated as (t-t o)/t o,where t o is the time of flow of the solvent and t is the time of flow of the digest.T wo enzyme preparations were compared:A.Megazyme amyloglucosidase (E-AMGDF) (at the same AMGconcentration as other commercial preparations used for TDFdeterminations).B.Another commercially available amyloglucosidase preparationrecommended for use in dietary fibre determinations.It is evident that Megazyme amyloglucosidase (E-AMGDF) is essentially devoid of contaminating ß-glucanase,whereas the other preparation contains significant levels of this contaminant.2.In Protease Preparations:The degree of contamination of protease with (1,3)(1,4) ß-glucanase can be determined using the procedure described for the measurement of cellulase in amyloglucosidase,with the modification that the assay pH is 7.5 (sodium phosphate buffer,50 mM).3.In Alpha-Amylase Preparations:No contaminating enzyme activities were detectable in thermostable α-amylase.Figure 4.Assay for cellulase contamination in amyloglucosidase preparations usinga viscometric assay with barley ß-glucan as substrate (refer to text).A.Megazyme amyloglucosidase (E-AMGDF);B.Another amyloglucosidase preparation which has been used indietary fibre determinations.WITHOUT GUARANTEEThe information contained in this booklet is,to the best of our knowledge,true and accurate,but since the conditions of use are beyond our control,no warranty is given or is implied in respect of any recommendation or suggestions which may be made or that any use will not infringe any patents.。
