N2 - Identifying the dietary fiber’s (DF) chemical composition (i.e., monosaccharides, lignin, uronic acids, phenolics) is essential for a better knowledge of the various health properties of the fiber. Thus, we propose a new approach that allows us not only to quantify the content of insoluble DF (IDF) and soluble DF (SDF) but also to estimate their chemical constituents, including their phenolic compounds and their respective antioxidant activity. The method can determine the chemical structure of DF resulting from four principal steps with chemical, enzymatic, and analytical procedures. The protocol can be completed in ~10 days, including ~5 days required for the fiber profile determination.
