Based on principal component analysis, the optimal extrusion conditions were determined, i.e., extrusion temperature 130 °C, moisture content 40% and screw speed 125 r/min. The dietary fiber contained 3.6% soluble and 88% insoluble dietary fiber and the major components were cellulose (26%) and hemicellulose (42%). Compared with untreated fibers, GAC and BRI of LEDF with optimal extrusion conditions increased 0.46 mg/mg and 28%, respectively. Regression analysis suggested that GRI and hemicellulose showed a significant positive correlation (p≤0.05). Overall, it could be suggested that the LEDF obtained with the optimized extrusion condition might be used as a potential ingredient in functional foods.
