NF: novel food; ND: not detected; ASU: Amtliche Sammlung von Untersuchungsverfahren (Official Collection of Methods of Analysis); GC‐FID: gas chromatography‐flame ionisation detection.
(a)
Total carbohydrates = 100 – (moisture + fat + crude protein +ash).
(b)
Total sugars = d‐Glucose + Fructose + Sucrose + Lactose + Maltose (determined enzymatically).
