Functional properties, structural studies and chemoenzymatic synthesis of oligosaccharides [PDF]
Oligosaccharides offer beneficial effects on immune system and gut health, such as anticancer activity, immunomodulatory activity, and complement activation. Functional oligosaccharides are widely found in plants, algae, bacteria and higher fungi.

Holo-analysis of the effects of xylo-oligosaccharides on broiler chicken performance
British Poultry Science1. Xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) stimulate proliferation of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract of broiler chickens. This results in enhanced utilisation of dietary non-starch polysaccharides and increased production of valuable short-chain fatty acids.

Optimising parameters for pilot scale steam explosion and continuous pressurised disc refining of Miscanthus and sugarcane bagasse for xylose and xylo-oligosaccharide release [PDF]
The first comparative pre-treatment study of Miscanthus (Mxg) and sugarcane bagasse (SCB) using steam explosion (SE) and pressurised disc refining (PDR) pretreatment to optimise xylose and xylo-oligosaccharide release is described.

Purification and characterisation of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) from wheat-based dried distillers grains with solubles [PDF]
, 2012 The aim of this project was to purify xylan which is the major hemicellulose in wheat bran from dried distiller’s grains with solubles (DDGS). DDGS is a by-product from the fuel ethanol industry which uses wheat grain as a raw material.

Characterisation of complex xylo-oligosaccharides from xylan rich by-products
Hydrolysates obtained by hydrothermal treatment of four xylan rich by-products (wheat bran, brewery's spent grain, corn cobs and Eucalyptus wood) were characterised. Depending on the feedstock material studied, the xylan originally present differed in substitution with arabinose, 4- O -methylglucuronic acid and O -acetyl substituents.
