Engineering of hydrolases to shift their hydrolysate types has not been attempted so far, though computer-assisted enzyme design has been successful. A novel integrative strategy for engineering and screening the β-1,3-xylanase with desired hydrolysate ...

Wood-derived dietary fibers promote beneficial human gut microbiota [PDF]
Woody biomass is a sustainable and virtually unlimited source of hemicellulosic polysaccharides. The predominant hemicelluloses in softwood and hardwood are galactoglucomannan (GGM) and arabinoglucuronoxylan (AGX), respectively.

Enzymatically-synthesized xylo-oligosaccharides laurate esters as surfactants of interest
Lipase-catalyzed synthesis of xylo-oligosaccharides esters from pure xylobiose, xylotriose and xylotetraose in the presence of vinyl laurate was investigated. The influence of different experimental parameters such as the loading of lipase, the reaction duration or the use of a co-solvent was studied and the reaction conditions were optimized with ...

Xylo-oligosaccharides preparation through acid hydrolysis of hemicelluloses isolated from press-lye
The preparation of xylo-oligosaccharides (XOSs) through hydrolysis of hemicelluloses was studied. The hemicelluloses were isolated from the press lye discharged in the production of viscose, which contained about 30% xylan. Then, a factorial experimental

Protective effect of xylo-oligosaccharides on mice with fatty liver induced by high-fat diet and related mechanisms [PDF]
Objective To investigate the protective effect of xylo-oligosaccharides on mice with fatty liver induced by high-fat diet and related mechanisms. Methods A total of 40 male C57/BL6J mice, aged 5 weeks, were randomly divided into low-fat diet control ...

Oral bacteria can influence the ability of Candida albicans to cause oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC). We recently reported that a Lactobacillus johnsonii-enriched oral microbiota reduced C. albicans virulence in an immunosuppressed OPC mouse model.

Multi-step approach to add value to corncob: production of biomass-degrading enzymes, lignin and fermentable sugars [PDF]
This work presents an integrated and multi-step approach for the recovery and/or application of the lignocellulosic fractions from corncob in the production of high value added compounds as xylo-oligosaccharides, enzymes, fermentable sugars, and lignin ...

Bioactive xylo-oligosaccharides from wheat bran soluble polysaccharides
Abstract Soluble polysaccharides (SP, 35 g) isolated from wheat bran (100 g) consisted mainly of arabinose and xylose with minor quantities of rhamnose, mannose, galactose and glucose. Wheat bran SP was subjected to purified endoxylanase (from 96 h ragi malt) treatment to obtain xylo-oligosaccharides (0.3 g/1 g wheat bran).

Xylo-oligosaccharides and virginiamycin differentially modulate gut microbial composition in chickens [PDF]
Background The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance in pathogens have led to a restriction on the use of antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) in animal feed in some countries. The potential negative after-effects of a ban on AGPs could be mitigated by improving animal intestinal health with prebiotic dietary fibers such as xylo-oligosaccharides (
