Relationships between the composition of dietary fibre in the diet and the digestion and transit time in rats

Article Abstract:

A study conducted to determine the relationships between the composition of dietary fibre in several agro-industrial by-products and the digestion and transit time in rats find that glucose increases the stools' weight and decreases the mean retention time and digestibility in water-soluble dietary fibers. Regression analysis between the dietary fibre (DF) constituents are difficult to perform due to the different composition of the DF sources.
