ACTA Scientiarum Polonorum

Abstract: The objective of our study was to determine and compare the neutral dietary fibre (NDF) and acid dietary fibre (ADF) contents in the pomace from the processing of two apple varieties (Idared and Champion), two strawberry varieties (Ducat and Kent), chokeberry, black currant, red cabbage, and two carrot varieties (Black carrot and Dolanka). Chokeberry pomace was found to contain the largest, and Dolanka carrot pomace the smallest amounts of NDF and ADF. The results imply that chokeberry pomace, black currant pomace and strawberry (both Ducat and Kent) pomace should be recommended as best suited for the production of high DF food components.
