When evaluating fiber testing approaches, it’s important to review how results differ across sample matrices tested by both the new and previous methods. More laboratories are implementing the Rapid Integrated Dietary Fiber Methods - AOAC Official Methods 2017.16 and 2022.01. The AOAC 2017.16 method measures the insoluble fiber fraction (IDF) and soluble fiber fraction that precipitates in 78% ethanol (SDFP) together, and separately measures the soluble dietary fiber not precipitated in 78% ethanol (SDFS) by HPLC.
In the competitive and highly regulated pet food industry, ingredient authenticity is more than a quality metric; it's a cornerstone of consumer trust and brand integrity. As demand for functional ingredients grows, so does the risk of adulteration. Manufacturers must be equipped with advanced testing strategies to safeguard their supply chains and ensure label claims are accurate.
