The indigestible dextrin with high indigestible fraction was prepared by treating the enzyme hydrolysate of pyrodextrin with ethanol or strongly acidic cation exchange resin(UBK 530). Optimum conditions of ethanol treatment for preparing the indigestible dextrin from alpha-amylase and amyloglucosidase treated hydrolysate were determined based on the indigestible fraction, dietary fiber content, and yield. Ethanol was added 5-fold by weight to 30%(w/w) enzyme hydrolysate, and the mixture was kept at room temperature for 3 hr. Low molecular weight saccharides containing glucose and high molecular weight saccharides were separated by strongly acidic cation exchange resin. While initial enzyme hydrolysate by alpha-amylase and amyloglucosidase showed 43.6% of DP1(glucose) and 51.1% of DP4+(maltotetraose and over), the indigestible dextrin collected to 50% of initial enzyme hydrolysate by treatment of cation exchange resin showed 7.1% of DP1(glucose) and 91.2% of DP4+(maltotetraose and over). In conclusion, 44.5% of indigestible fraction of initial enzyme hydrolysate increased to 78.9% after separation of low molecular weight saccharides.
