Example 1.12

EXAMPLE 1.12

Soluble corn fiber and calcium. Refer to Example 1.11, which gives the data for subjects consuming 12 g/d of SCF. Here are the data for subjects under control conditions (0 g/d of SCF):

42	33	41	49	42	47	48	47	53	72	47	63
68	59	35	46	43	55	38	49	51	51	66

Figure 1.5 gives the back-to-back stemplot for the SCF and control conditions. The values on the left give absorption for the control condition, while the values on the right give absorption when SCF was consumed. The values for SCF appear to be somewhat higher than the controls.
