Enzymatic production of prebiotic xylooligosaccharides

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology
Xylooligosaccharides (XOS) have been shown to have prebiotic activities and therefore have beneficial effects on human and animal health. Production of these oligosaccharides from xylan often results in diverse mixtures, largely due to the variation in the xylan structure and the substrate specificities of the enzymes used to generate them.

Recent advances in the enzymatic production and applications of xylooligosaccharides

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2021
The majority of lignocellulosic biomass on the planet originates from plant cell walls, which are complex structures build up mainly by cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. The largest part of hemicellulose, xylan, is a polymer with a β-(1→4)-linked xylose residues backbone decorated with α-D-glucopyranosyl uronic acids and/or L-arabinofuranose ...

Evaluating the addition of xylooligosaccharides into alginate-gelatin hydrogels

Food Research International, 2021
Xylooligosaccharides (XOS) are emerging prebiotic that may improve structural features of biopolymer blends. The investigation around the conformation of XOS into the matrix of alginate and gelatin clarifies the potential applications of this formulation in the food industry as texture modifiers or encapsulation systems.

Xylooligosaccharides Production from Arundo donax

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2007
Samples of Arundo donax were subjected to isothermal autohydrolysis, defined by temperature, 150-195 degrees C; time, 0-15 h; and liquor to solid ratio, 8 g/g. The effect of the operational variables on the yield and composition of both liquid and solid phases obtained after the treatments has been studied.

Membrane-Assisted Processing of Xylooligosaccharide-Containing Liquors

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2006
Liquors from rice husk autohydrolyis, containing xylooligosaccharides, other saccharides, and nonsaccharide compounds, were subjected to two selected processing schemes to increase the proportion of substituted xylooligosaccharides in refined liquors. Nanofiltration through a ceramic membrane with a molecular mass cutoff of 1000 Da allowed simultaneous

Enzymatic Production of Xylooligosaccharides from Cotton Stalks

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2007
Xylooligosaccharide (XO) production was performed from xylan, which was obtained by alkali extraction from cotton stalk, a major agricultural waste in Turkey. Enzymatic hydrolysis was selected to prevent byproduct formation such as xylose and furfural.

Preparation and Analysis of Cello- and Xylooligosaccharides

2015
This review provides a general overview of preparation, separation, and analytical methods for cello- and xylooligosaccharides. Arising as side-stream products of different biorefinery processes, these compounds have increasingly gained the interest of researchers and engineers in the last few decades. Beside their application as additives in the food,

Maltodextrin: A consummate carrier for spray-drying of xylooligosaccharides

Food Research International, 2018
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of spray-drying on the powder qualities and microstructures of prebiotic xylooligosaccharides (XOS). The relationships between glass transition temperature (Tg) and XOS retention, moisture content, drying yield as well as specific surface area under different inlet air temperatures and maltodextrin ...

Xylooligosaccharides and Their Anticancer Potential: An Update

2018
Xylooligosaccharides (XOS), which are sugar oligomers that consist of 2–10 units of xylose, are non-digestible food ingredients produced mainly by the hydrolysis of xylan. The production of XOS from agricultural residues serves as a good source of products for the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries.

Production of xylooligosaccharides by autohydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials

Trends in Food Science & Technology, 2004
The composition of xylan-containing raw materials (Eucalyptus globulus wood, corn cobs, rice husks and barley husks) has been determined, and substituted xylooligosaccharides (SXO) have been produced by reacting them with water (autohydrolysis reaction) under optimal conditions deduced from reported kinetic models.
