internal standard (IS; glucoheptose) and an aliquot of fructanase are added to the sample solution. After the fructanase hydrolysis is completed, the samples are analyzed for fructose on HPAEC- PAD instrumentation. The total fructan content is calculated from the fructose, adjusted by the commodity factor, CF, determined by Part I (if not known).

AOAC Official Method 2016.06 Fructans in Infant, Pediatric, and Adult Nutritional Formulas HPAEC/PAD First Action 2016

[Applicable to the determination of the total fructan content in infant, pediatric, and adult nutritional products (as well as commodities) as defined in SMPR 2014.02 (1)]. See Tables 2016.06A–C for matrixes for which SLV data has been generated, supporting acceptance of the method. A. Principle A two-part analysis is performed. Part I is a qualitative classification of the fructan present in the sample. This classification is based on rules related to presence/absence of GF 3 (nystose) and/or GF 4 (fructofuranosylnystose), specifically, and higher oligomers, generally. It groups the fructans into one of three DP ranges and allows assignment of an appropriate commodity factor for calculating the total fructan concentration based on the amount of fructose released by enzymatic hydrolysis of the fructans. Part II is the quantitative determination of the fructan-derived fructose, from which the total fructan in calculated. The sample to be analyzed is weighed and diluted with laboratory water, as appropriate. Part I of the analysis is then performed. Part II can be run in parallel, whereby an aliquot of the diluted sample is treated with sucrase to hydrolyze any sucrose present. Glucose and fructose released by the sucrase treatment, as well as inherent glucose and fructose, are then reduced to sugar alcohols by the addition of sodium borohydride. Excess borohydride is neutralized by the addition of acetic acid. Lastly, an aliquot of
