Husked barley contained 17.2% dietary fiber and naked barley contained 14.9% dietary fiber. The barley was ground in a Udy cyclotec mill having a 0.5 mm screen and sieved with a 400-mesh screen (38 m openings). Coarse material of naked barley retained by the screen, with a weight yield of 54.1%, contained 7.0% soluble dietary fiber, 13.9% insoluble dietary filer and 20.9% total dietray fiber. As the naked barley flour level increased in bread baking, the water absorption, mixing time, and loaf weight increased, but the loaf volume decreased. Barley flour was added to wheat flour at a replacement level of 10% without a large adverse effect on bread quality, and the dietary fiber content of bread was increased from 3.0% to 5.0%. The soluble dietary fiber content was not changed, but the insoluble dietary fiber content was increased during the baking process.

Effects of added green tea powder and Angelica keiskei powder on the quality characteristics of Yukwa were examined for the purpose of improving functioanality and variety of Yukwa, and usage of green tea Powder and Angelica keiskei. Dietary fiber contents of green tea powder were 5.2% soluble dietary fiber, 22% insoluble dietary fiber, while Angelica keiskei contained 28.9% soluble dietary fiber, 29.6% insoluble dietary fiber. Expansion rate of yukwa was 3,675% for control and the rates were slightly decreased as the addition level increased. Although Yukwas added 6% green tea and angelica keiskei powder were harder than the others when determined by rheometer, sensory evaluation results showed that hardness and mouthfeel were soft without any significant difference among the control and experimental samples. And internal structure of 4 and 6% green tea powder and those added angelica keiskei at three levels were evaluated by sensory panel as moderately compact. Overall acceptability of yukwa added 2% green tea Powder was the best of all while yukwas added angelica keiskei at three levels were evaluated as good. The results of peroxide value and TBA value showed that green tea powder had stronger antioxidative property than angelica keiskei. In conclusion addition of green tea powder by 2% level and angelica keiskei powder up to 4% would give us beneficial effects in the aspects of functionality and storage life of yukwa without any detrimental effects on the quality characteristics of it.

Porphyra yezoensis is potentially an excellent source of dietary fiber, amino acids, and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) because this red seaweed is available in large quantities and is rich in polysaccharides, proteins, and n-3 fatty acids. This study determined the insoluble dietary fiber (IDF), soluble dietary fiber (SDF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), amino acid, and fatty acid contents of P. yezoensis harvested monthly from November 2011 to March 2012. The total dietary fiber (TDF) and IDF contents ranged from 27.2-34.9% and 18.5-26.9%, respectively, and were greater in March than November. The SDF content ranged from 4.9-8.4% and did not differ significantly during growth. Galactose and 3,6-anhydro galactose were the major sugars in IDF and SDF. The higher levels of galactose and 3,6-anhydro galactose in IDF might be due to associated porphyran-type polysaccharides. Mannose and xylose were also major sugars in IDF. The total amino acid contents decreased gradually from November to March. The total amino acid composition of Porphyra was dominated by alanine, glutamic acid, arginine, and aspartic acid. No significant changes in the fatty acid profile were observed throughout the study period. The dominant fatty acid during all seasons was EPA, which comprised as much as 50% of the total fatty acid content.

Large bowel cancer correlates tightly to dietary factors such as dietary fiber and fat. Dietary fiber prevents the large bowel cancer in different modes of action which depend upon physicochemical and fermentable properties. Water-soluble fiber is fermented easily by intestinal microbes producing short chain fatty acids ; in contrast, water-insoluble fiber occurs effectively more rapid transit time due to greater bulk of gut content, though it is unfermentable. Not only short chain fatty acid is utilized in the proximal and distal colon as primary energy source, but also it lowers pH in the colon to normalize cellular differentiation and helps to stimulate peri staltic movement by acting as an osmotic laxative. In particular, butyric acid may also regulate gene expression and cell growth, though it is an important respiratory fuel for the colonocyte. Since dietary fiber and non-digestible oligosaccharides are the major source of butyric acid, this provides a possible link between dietary fiber and oligosaccharide and prevention of large bowel cancer. But, as with many links between dietary fiber and large bowel cancer, a direct casual association has not been established. In addition, RDA of dietary fiber which is 20~25g/day for adult Japanese, appears to be reasonable for the defecation once daily and the prevention of large bowel cancer.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary soluble fiber administration and/or high fat diet on serum and brain neurohormonal profiles, adipose tissue mass and body weight gain in Sprague-Dawley rats. Four groups of rats were respectively fed 10% fat diet (C), 10% fat plus pectin diet (P), 20% fat diet (HFC) and 20% fat plus pectin diet (HFP) for 4 weeks. In HFP group, the food and energy intake, body weight gain, FER including fecal excretion were the smallest (p<0.05). Serum HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride and glucose level were also the lowest in HFP group (p<0.05). The weight of brain, epididymal fat pad and adrenal gland except liver didn't show any significant differences among groups. Interestingly serum norepinephrine concentration of HFP group tended to be higher, but dopamine concentration tended to be lower than those of HFC group. However serum catecholamine concentration didn't show any significant differences among all groups. Norepinephrine and epinephrine contents of right portion of midbrain of P and HFP groups were remarkably lower than those of the C group. These results suggested that soluble fiber pectin consumption might affect neurohormonal profiles in serum and brain according to dietary fat level.

The physicochemical and in vitro physiological properties of soluble dietary fiber (SDF) from wax gourd (Benincasa hispida) pulp and peel were investigated. The pulp was composed of 11.4% SDF and 24.3% insoluble dietary fiber (IDF), while the peel contained 3.2% SDF and 43.3% IDE The predominant sugar in the SDF of the wax gourd pulp and peel was uronic acid, followed by galactose and rhamnose. The SDFs from the wax gourd pulp and peel gave similar elution patterns, with 4 main neutral sugar and uronic acid peaks eluted by 0.4, 0.5, 1, and 2 M ammonium acetate buffer. The pulp SDF had a much higher glucose retardation index (GRI) than the peel SDF for all measurement times. The pulp SDF showed strong growth-inhibiting activity against Escherichia coli and Clostridium perfringens, whereas the peel SDF produced strong growth-promoting activity against Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium infantis, and Lactobacillus brevis when compared to glucose.

Mandarin orange fruits were artificially contaminated with an organophosphorus insecticide phenthoate by dipping and the residue level of phenthoate was investigated during the purification steps of dietary fiber or bioflavonoid. The removal rate of phenthoate at 8 and 0.5 ppm levels was 98% in the total dietary fiber, 99% in the insoluble dietary fiber and 99.8% in the soluble dietary fiber preparations. Kuring the preparation of biflavonoid from peels at a 5 ppm pesticide level, the removal rate was 90% in the intermediate extract and 99.9% in the final extract. In conclusion, phenthoate residues in the peels of mandarin orange were mostly removed during the preparation processes of dietary fiber of bioflavonoid and its residue level would not raise any problem in safety aspects of the purified products.

The study evaluated the effects of dietary fiber and energy levels administered during two growing periods (d 0-28 and d 29-56) for pigs exposed to a high temperature. A total of 96 growing pigs were used in six treatments as: Two treatments in thermoneutral temperature (21℃-24℃) with dietary energy of 3,300 and the inclusion of high or low fiber, two treatments in heat stress (30℃-34℃) with dietary energy of 3,300 and the inclusion of high or low fiber, and two treatments in heat stress with dietary energy of 3,450 and the inclusion of high or low fiber. Among standard energy level treatments, heat-stressed pigs showed lower average daily gain (ADG), feed intake, digestibility of dry matter, gross energy, crude protein, and crude fiber in phases 1 and 2. Moreover, higher concentrations of acetate, propionate, butyrate, and total short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) in feces were shown in pigs fed high fiber diets. There was a negative interaction between dietary fiber and energy for the fecal concentration of isobutyrate in phase 1 and valerate in phase 2. Pigs in heat stress treatments showed a higher rectal temperature, respiratory rate, hair cortisol, plasma zonulin, and fecal lipocalin-2. Among heat stress treatments, the overall ADG was increased in pigs fed high fiber. Pigs fed high dietary fiber showed a greater concentration of acetate, propionate, butyrate, and total SCFA. High fiber treatments decreased plasma zonulin. In conclusion, the inclusion of beet pulp, soluble fiber, at the level of 4% looks necessary in pigs diet during heat stress.

In this study, the dietary fiber contents of Mozuku (Cladosiphon novae-caledoniae kylin) residue and the extraction condition (HCl, $H_2SO_4$, NaOH, $Na_2CO_3$, $Na_2EDTA$) of the dietary fiber was investigated. We examined that the contents of the total polyphenols and flavonoids in the dietary fiber from Mozuku residue, and the potent anti-cancer effect was also tested through the growth inhibition in human colon cancer cells (HT-29) in vitro. It was effective to extract soluble dietary fiber with 1.5% $Na_2EDTA$ and 0.05 N HCl in Mozuku residue. The extraction time and temperature affected the yields of soluble dietary fiber. The contents of the total polyphenols and flavonoids in the dietary fiber from Mozuku residue were the highest in 1% NaOH extract (Total polyphenols $34.4{\pm}0.055$ mg gallic acid/g dry basis, total flavonoids $34.7{\pm}0.023$ mg naringin/g extract dry basis). In DPPH radical scavenging activity, 1% NaOH extract showed the most potent antioxidant activity. In the result of viability in human colon cancer cells, growth inhibition was observed in D.W., 0.05 N HCl, and 0.5% $Na_2CO_3$ extracts in a dose-dependent manner. These results demonstrated that soluble dietary fiber from Mozuku residue significant antioxidant activity and anticancer in human colon cancer.

Brewer's spent grain (BSG) is a by-product of beer manufacturing. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary fiber extracts from brewer's spent grain on quality characteristics of chicken patties. The total fiber content of BSG dietary fiber extracts after extraction increased from 58.11% to 68.57%, and the extracted dietary fiber extracts were added to chicken patties at 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4%, respectively. The effects of the BSG dietary fiber extracts on pH, color, cooking loss, reduction in patty diameter, salt-soluble protein solubility, texture, and sensory characteristics of chicken patties were evaluated. The addition of BSG dietary fiber extracts decreased pH and lightness values, and increased redness and yellowness. Chicken patties formulated with 3-4% BSG dietary fiber extracts had the lowest cooking loss among all treatments (p<0.05). The diameter of chicken patties was not affected by the addition of BSG dietary fiber extracts. Additionally, no significant difference was observed in salt-soluble protein solubility after adding 3% BSG dietary fiber extracts compared to that in the control. Textural and sensory properties were different among the chicken patties, and the 3% BSG dietary fiber-added chicken patty had the highest acceptability. Our results indicate that 3% BSG dietary fiber extract can be used as a good source of dietary fiber for improving the quality characteristics of chicken patties.
