Best Answer

Fiber can be tested in food by weighing or chemical analysis.

Weighing (or the gravimetric method) involves digesting components of the food using enzymes. After all the digestible material is removed from the food, the remaining fiber is weighed.

Chemical analysis involves determining the amounts of individual monomers in the fiber to quantify how much fiber is in the food.
