The following definition! and lUndanU for glaten produoU and "diabrtio" food were adopted by the Joint Committee on Defiuitlon* and Standard! April «. 1MB. wd were approved by the Asgociation of American Dairy, Food, and Dtug Oi&ctala, Augunt 3, 1916. and by the A»8ociation of 0«Scial Agricultural ChemiaU, KoTwrfw 17, 1915: Oround gluten is the clean, lound product made from wheat flonr by the almoit complete removal of starch and contain! not more than ten per cent (10%) of moiatnre, and, calculated on the wator-free basi*. not le!« than fourteen and two-tenUu per oent (14-2%) of nitrogen, not more than fifteen per cent (16%) of nitrog«»-free extract (uaing protein factor 6-7) and not more than five and five-tentha per cent (6-6%) of atarch (aa determined by the diaataae method). - . v i « Qluten flour is the clean, sound product made from whett flour by the removal ol a large part of the starch and contain! not more than ten per cent (10%) of moiBture, and, calculated on the water-free ba»i», not lesa than seven and one-tenth per cent (71%) of nitrogen, not more than fifty-six per cent (66%) of nitrogen-free extract (using the protein factor 67), and not more than fourty-four per cent (44%) of atarch (u determined by the diastase method.) aiuien flour, telf-raiting, is a gluten flour containing not more than ten per oent (10%) of moisture, and leavening agents with or without salt. "Diabetic food. Although most foods may be suitable under cerUin conditions for the u!e of persons suffering from diabetes, the term "diabetic" aa applied to food indi- cates a considerable lessening of the carbohydratss found in ordinary product! of the same class, and this belief is fostered by many manufacturer! on their labela and in their advertising literature. . . i. j » A "diabetic" food contains not more than half as much glycogenic carbohydrate! ' as the normal food of the same class. Any statement on the label which gives the impwssion that any single food in unlimited quantity is suitable for the diabetic patient if false and misleading. .-.».# The foregong definitions and standards are adopted as a guide ior the oBciala ot this Department in enforcing the Food and Drug! Act. D. Fi HOUSTON, Bocnim^ of AfrieuUtm. Washington, D.C, Jaauaiy 8, 1910. It wiU be noted that the terms "ground gluten" "gluten flonr" and "diabetic food" are more or lees closely defined. In the present state of our knowledge, I do not think it practicable to be more specific than the requirements of the Decision above quoted. The present report concerns 21 samples purchased by our inspectors under variona names, but all evidently intended for the use of sufferers from diabetes. They vaaj be classified as follows: Gluten flour » sampie!.
