Notes:
Four different packs of canned pears were analyzed for simple sugars and soluble and insoluble fibers. The sum of these components compared favorably with the carbohydrate value obtained from the proximate constituents. A total dietary fiber (TDF) method was investigated and the results were compared to the sum of the neutral detergent fiber and pectin components. Results indicate that this method has potential for estimating total fiber content of fruits,
