Data on the effects of cellulase hydrolysis, acid treatment and particle size distribution on physicochemical and functional properties of coconut (cocos nucifera L) cake dietary fibres

Abstract

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled “Physicochemical and functional properties of coconut (Cocos nucifera L) cake dietary fibres: Effects of cellulase hydrolysis, acid treatment and particle size distribution” [1]. This article describes the effect of acidic treatment, cellulase hydrolysis and particle size distribution on the monosaccharide composition, X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transformed infrared and spectroscopy surface area of coconut cake dietary fiber. The field data set is made publicly available to the potential re-use of coconut cake or other plants by-products. Keywords: Defatted coconut dietary fiber, Cellulase, Acidic treatment, Monosaccharide composition, Surface area
