ABSTRACT
Cereal bars for infant collation in two flavors were developed apple and red fruits. The bars were made with oatmeal and dried fruit, low in saturated fat, total sugars and sodium. The effect of the addition of 2.5% of β-glucan in the bars on the sensory acceptability, satiety and digestive tolerance in primary school children were evaluated. The results showed high sensory acceptability to all bars (both flavors, with and without β-glucan), being higher in children from 1st to 4th grade and in men (p <0.05). Consumption of the bars produced satiety in children without stumbling significant differences due to thepresence of β-glucan. Regarding the digestive tolerance, no cases of discomfort were presented, indicating that all cereal bars were well tolerated. The addition of β-glucan in the bars does not affect the sensory acceptability of these and does not affect satiety compared to bars without β-glucan.
RESUMEN
RESUMEN Se desarrollaron barritas de cereal destinadas a la colación infantil en dos sabores manzana y frutos rojos. Las barritas se elaboraron con avena y frutos deshidratados, con bajo contenido de grasas saturadas, azúcares totales y sodio. Se evaluó el efecto de la incorporación de 2.5% de β-glucano en las barritas sobre la aceptabilidad sensorial, saciedad y tolerancia digestiva en escolares de educación básica. Los resultados obtenidos demostraron alta aceptabilidad sensorial para todas las barritas (ambos sabores, con y sin β-glucano), siendo mayor en niños de 1° a 4° básico y en hombres (p<0.05). El consumo de las barritas produjo saciedad en los niños, sin encontrase diferencias significativas por efecto de la presencia de β-glucano. Respecto a la tolerancia digestiva, no se presentaron casos de malestar, lo que indica que todas las barritas de cereal fueron bien toleradas. La incorporación de β-glucano en las barritas no afecta la aceptabilidad sensorial de éstas y tampoco afecta la saciedad respecto a barritas sin β-glucano.
