ABSTRACT
The supernatant from rat intestinal acetone powder (RIAP) was used as a source of mammalian glucosidases to determine the digestion properties of glycemic-carbohydrates. We hypothesized that many glucosidases are still anchored to the precipitated-intestinal tissues with available enzymes, and developed a method using the RIAP suspension to optimize the in vitro carbohydrate digestion model. The glucose production from various types of glycemic ingredients by RIAP suspension showed that this carbohydrate-hydrolysis model using the entire spectrum of glucosidases can be applied in an in vitro assay to determine carbohydrate quality from glycemic food products at the mammalian level. This approach better mimics the mammalian situation compared to other assays to determine the glycemic-carbohydrate digestion properties that employ fungal/microbial glucosidases that have different hydrolytic activities compared to mammalian enzymes. The method can also be used to determine the inhibitory effects of α-glucosidase inhibitors to attenuate the post-prandial blood glucose level.
