Our paper suggesting a new three-step method to estimate phenylalanine in commercial foods has appeared:
J. Kim, A. Talikoti, M. Boutin, “A 3-Step Process to Estimate Phenylalanine in Commercial Foods for PKU Management“, IEEE Access, Vol. 6, 23 May 2018.
The paper shows three steps to follow to use the ingredient list and the nutrient facts written on the label in order to obtain an estimate of the Phe content of the food. The first step provides a first (rough) estimate, which is refined in the second step, and further refined in the third step.
The paper is a bit technical, mostly the third step. But the first two steps are fairly easy to understand. So if you are interested in learning how to estimate Phe from a commercial food label, go ahead and take a look. This is an Open Access publication, so you don’t need an IEEE Xplore access to be able to read the full paper.
