Safety evaluation of the food enzyme β-fructofuranosidase from the non-genetically modified <i>Aspergillus</i> sp. strain ATCC 20611. [PDF]
Abstract The food enzyme β‐fructofuranosidase (β‐d‐fructofuranoside fructohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.26) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus sp. strain ATCC 20611 by Beghin Meiji. The food enzyme was free from viable cells of the production organism.

Synergistic Enhancement of Corn Insoluble Dietary Fiber via Combined Radiofrequency Heating and Enzymatic Hydrolysis: Fermentability and Short-Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA) Production. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study aims to enhance the fermentability and health benefits of corn insoluble dietary fiber (IDF) from corn gluten meal (CGM) using radiofrequency (RF) heating at 27.12 MHz and enzymatic hydrolysis (EH) with α‐amylase and protease. The objectives are to characterize the structural modifications of IDF, evaluate the effects of RF heating ...

Dietary calcium decreases but short-chain fructo-oligosaccharides increase colonic permeability in rats [PDF]
An increased intestinal permeability is associated with several diseases. Nutrition can influence gut permeability. Previously, we showed that dietary Ca decreases whereas dietary short-chain fructo-oligosaccharides (scFOS) increase intestinal ...

Purification and identification of oligosaccharides from Cimicifuga heracleifolia Kom. rhizomes
Even though Cimicifuga sp. is widely used in functional foods around the world, the content and structure of its oligosaccharides remain unclear. Here, we isolated a mixture of oligosaccharides from Cimicifuga heracleifolia Kom.

Effects of dietary fructo-oligosaccharides on laying performance and serum biochemical parameters of yellow broiler breeder hens [PDF]
24-week-old local yellow broiler breeder hens were selected to study the effects of dietary fructo-oligosaccharides(FOS)or antibiotics(bacitracin zinc)on laying performance, serum biochemical indices and dietary mutrient metabolizability.

Safety of 6'-sialyllactose (6'-SL) sodium salt produced with a derivative strain (<i>Escherichia coli</i> K-12 MG1655 INB-6SL_02) of <i>E. coli</i> K-12 MG1655 (ATCC 700926) as a novel food pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. [PDF]
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on 6′‐sialyllactose (6’‐SL) sodium salt as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. The NF is mainly composed of the human‐identical milk oligosaccharide (HiMO) 6’‐SL (sodium salt),

Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) production by fungal submerged culture using aguamiel as a low-cost by-product [PDF]
Abstract Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are important ingredients in the functional food industry because they have different biological properties such as decrease level of triglycerides, cholesterol and phospholipids and stimulate growth of probiotics for enhancement of microflora in large intestine. However, current strategies for the FOS production
