Xylan Prebiotics and the Gut Microbiome Promote Health and Wellbeing: Potential Novel Roles for Pentosan Polysulfate

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
This narrative review highlights the complexities of the gut microbiome and health-promoting properties of prebiotic xylans metabolized by the gut microbiome. In animal husbandry, prebiotic xylans aid in the maintenance of a healthy gut microbiome.

An Integrated Enzymatic Approach to Produce Pentyl Xylosides and Glucose/Xylose Laurate Esters From Wheat Bran

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Alkyl glycosides and sugars esters are non-ionic surfactants of interest for various applications (cosmetics, food, detergency,…). In the present study, xylans and cellulose from wheat bran were enzymatically converted into pentyl xylosides and glucose ...

Preparation of Sulfated Xylans and Its in Vitro Proliferation of Probiotics

open access: yesShipin gongye ke-ji, 2023
This study aimed to determine the effect of sulfated xylans on the growth of probiotics. Xylan (Xyl) was chemically modified using the sulfamic acid-N,N-dimethylformamide method to produce sulfated xylan (SXY).

Optimizing yield and chemical compositions of dimethylsulfoxide-extracted birchwood xylan

open access: yesJournal of Bioresources and Bioproducts, 2022
Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) extraction is commonly used to study the chemical structures of original xylan in the plant cell wall, since the DMSO can preserve the original structure of the xylan as much as possible during the extracting process. In addition,

Glycan complexity dictates microbial resource allocation in the large intestine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The structure of the human gut microbiota is controlled primarily through the degradation of complex dietary carbohydrates, but the extent to which carbohydrate breakdown products are shared between members of the microbiota is unclear.
