An overview of the recent developments on fructooligosaccharide production and applications [PDF]
Over the past years, many researchers have suggested that deficiencies in the diet can lead to disease states and that some diseases can be avoided through an adequate intake of relevant dietary components.

In this work, it was determined the influence of temperature, pH and storage time on the enzymatic activity and stability of an extracellular fructosyltransferase (FTase E.C.2.4.1.9) from Aspergillus oryzae IPT-301 produced by submerged fermentation. The

Cross-linked whole cells for the sucrose transfructosylation reaction in a continuous reactor [PDF]
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are fructose oligomers beneficial to human health and nutrition for prebiotic sugars. Their production occurs by a transfructosylation reaction in sucrose molecules catalyzed by fructosyltransferase enzymes (FTase, E.C.2.4.1 ...

Fructans Are Differentially Distributed in Root Tissues of Asparagus
Inulin- and neoseries-type fructans [fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and fructopolysaccharides] accumulate in storage roots of asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.), which continue to grow throughout the lifespan of this perennial plant.

Key Molecular and Metabolic Processes Used for Genetic Engineering to Improve Freezing Tolerance in Cereals [PDF]
It has been estimated recently that cereals are harvested on 700 million hectares (Mha) worldwide (Dunwell, 2014), and also that, due to low temperature damage, worldwide losses in crop production amount to about US$2 billion each year (Sanghera et ...

The fructosyltransferase of Streptococcus salivarius [PDF]
SUMMARYThe nature of the fructans produced by oral streptococci and the β‐D‐fructosyltransferases (FTFs) that synthesize them from sucrose are considered in this review. Models for the apparent unique surface expression and secretion of the FTF produced by Streptococcus salivarius are discussed in light of recent evidence obtained from the cloning and ...

Inactivation of cell-associated fructosyltransferase in Streptococcus salivarius [PDF]
In stationary phase, 95% of the fructosyltransferase (FTase) activity of Streptococcus salivarius ATCC 25975 was found associated with the cells. Within the first 15 min after inoculation into fresh medium, the specific activity of cell-associated FTase decreased by 92% of its initial value. After this period of initial loss, the enzyme was synthesized

Aguamiel is a natural sap produced by some species of agave plants, such as Agave salmiana, A. atrovirens, or A. angustifolia. It is a product with a high concentration of fructose, glucose or sucrose, although its composition may vary depending on the ...

Regulation of Sucrose-Sucrose-Fructosyltransferase in Barley Leaves [PDF]
The activity of sucrose-sucrose-fructosyltransferase (SST), a vacuolar enzyme strongly induced by light in excised leaves of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), rapidly declined even in continuous light upon feeding of cycloheximide (CHI). The rate of decline was similar to that observed in light-treated leaves that were placed into darkness, in the presence ...

High-yield production and purification of prebiotic inulin-type fructooligosaccharides
Due to the health-promoting effects and functional properties of inulin-type fructooligosaccharides (I-FOS), the global market for I-FOS is constantly growing.
