April 25/Serbia/Sugar Industry -- New research from Serbia has raised hopes on the antioxidant benefits and shelflife extension properties of a sugar beet fiber derived ingredient when added to biscuits.
Fibrex, produced by Nordic Sugar, is produced by a clean-drying process. Building on previous research, the Serbian research team compared it with treated sugar beet fiber (TF) that had been extracted with sulphurous acid and treated with hydrogen peroxide, according to the portal bakeryandsnacks.com.
