In vitro fermentability of inulin and fructo‐oligosaccharides (FOS) is dependent on chain length
Inulin and FOS are isolated from chickory root and Jerusalem artichoke for use as dietary supplements and are also consumed naturally from wheat, onions, and bananas. Inulin and FOS exert beneficial physiological effects such as fermentability, enhanced mineral absorption, improved colonic health, and improved colonic microflora.

In vitro digestibility and fermentability of fructo-oligosaccharides produced by Aspergillus ibericus [PDF]
The bifidogenic potential of fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) produced by a newly isolated strain Aspergillus ibericus was studied. Their activity was compared to FOS produced by Aureobasidium pullulans and to a non-microbial commercial FOS sample ...

Shaping the Infant Microbiome With Non-digestible Carbohydrates
Natural polysaccharides with health benefits are characterized by a large structural diversity and differ in building blocks, linkages, and lengths. They contribute to human health by functioning as anti-adhesives preventing pathogen adhesion, stimulate ...

Relationship between carbohydrate composition and fungal deterioration of functional strawberry juices preserved using non-thermal treatments [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The quantification of the main carbohydrates present in strawberry juices enriched with inulin and fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) and preserved by non-thermal techniques (vanillin and ultrasound) were studied, as well as the

Optimization and sensorial evaluation of guabiroba jam with prebiotic [PDF]
: The objective of this work was to optimize formulations of guabiroba (Campomanesia xanthocarpa) jam by central composite design (CCD), to evaluate the addition of pectin (P), citric acid (CA), and fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS).

Prebiotics: a potential treatment strategy for the chemotherapy-damaged gut? [PDF]
Mucositis, characterized by ulcerative lesions along the alimentary tract, is a common consequence of many chemotherapy regimens. Chemotherapy negatively disrupts the intestinal microbiota, resulting in increased numbers of potentially pathogenic ...
