Chromatographic Considerations and Maltitol Interference in Dietary Fiber Analysis
Chromatographic selection materially affects DP2/DP3 assignment for SDFS quantification.Maltitol can cause matrix-dependent artifactual SDFS in starch-containing test materials, suggesting formation of low-molecular-weight species during enzymatic processing.Guidance on column equivalency would strengthen AOAC dietary fiber methodology and further work is warranted to further investigate maltitol interaction with glucose-based polymers during TDF analysis.
