Effects of Fineness of Grind and Periodic Agitation on Total Available Carbohydrate Values Obtained by Enzyme Saccharification1

L. J. Greub and W. F. Wedin2

Grinding alfalfa and birdsfoot trefoil root samples to pass through 18-, 40-, or 80-mesh screens had no effect on TAC values except for late summer and autumn samples wherein TAC levels were high and starch was a major constituent. Periodic agitation during enzyme saccharification usually did not increase TAC values.

Key Words: Mesh size • Particle size • Starch conversion
