摘要: 1. Experiments to measure the effect of a fibre source in diet on stool bulk are difficult and lack precision. In vitro methods which would identify sources that effective for clinical epidemiologic use be valuable. One important property influences ability increase weight is its water-holding capacity (WHC). 2. WHC was measured using centrifugation, filtration, suction pressure water flow-rate techniques concentrates potato, cereal bran gum arabic. 3. Dietary supplementation three preparations potato (20 g/d) had no significant but 16 g bran/d increased from 107 (SE 44) g/d 174 51) g/d. 4. The effects these fibres can related nature properties rather than absolute WHC.
