Effects of xylooligosaccharide on growth of bifidobacteria.
キシロオリゴ糖の腸内フローラに及ぼす影響について検討を行うために健康な成人男子を対象に, 毎日1gもしくは2gずつ3週間にわたって摂取させ, 摂取前, 摂取中, 摂取後に採便し, 腸内フローラ, 水分の測定を行った。その結果, 摂取前に比べ, 摂取中は腸内菌叢に占めるビフィズス菌の割合が有意に増加し, 摂取を中止すると低下することが示された。また, 便の水分含量は80%へと収斂し, 軟便, 固い便がちょうどよい固さになる傾向を示した。キシロオリゴ糖摂取量の増加に伴い, 腸内のビフィズス菌も増加したことから, ビフィズス菌の増加は確かにキシロオリゴ糖摂取によるものと考えられた。

Discovery of a Xylooligosaccharide Oxidase from Myceliophthora thermophila C1 [PDF]
By inspection of the predicted proteome of the fungus Myceliophthora thermophila C1 for vanillyl-alcohol oxidase (VAO)-type flavoprotein oxidases, a putative oligosaccharide oxidase was identified. By homologous expression and subsequent purification, the respective protein could be obtained.

Two recombinant xylanases from marine bacteria, β‐1,3‐xylanase Xyl4 and mixed‐linkage xylanase AlXyn26A, were used to digest glucoxylan structures extracted from the green alga Caulerpa lentillifera and synthesized by automated glycan assembly. High‐performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (HPLC‐MS) analysis of the reaction ...

Hemicellulose consists of non-cellulosic polysaccharides, with xylans and mannans as their main examples. In nature, xylan can be first degraded to xylooligosaccharides and finally to xylose by certain microorganisms.

Xylooligosaccharide Production from Tobacco Stalk Xylan using Xylanase Streptomyces sp. BO 3.2
Tobacco stalk (TS), which is one type of lignocellulosic material, has a xylan content of up to 21.9%. Lignocellulose can be used to produce xylooligosaccharides (XOs). XOs are dietary fibers that have prebiotic activity.

Faecal Attraction: 40 Years of Research in Gut Microbiology
ABSTRACT This article summarises the 2025 British Nutrition Foundation Annual Lecture given on 25/11/25. It overviews aspects of research in anaerobic microbiology, principally involving the human gut. Until October 2025, Gibson was Professor of Food Microbiology at the University of Reading.

Abstract Natural polymers are promising sustainable materials for diverse applications. Xylans, major components of hemicellulose, exhibit origin‐dependent substitution patterns that determine their physicochemical properties. Targeted enzymatic modification of these substituents offers a mild and precise approach for tailoring the polymer's ...

Goruba (Hyphaene thebaica) fruit waste is an underutilized, xylan-rich residue that can be enzymatically converted into xylooligosaccharides (XOS). XOS are non-digestible prebiotic oligosaccharides that function as soluble dietary fiber by supporting ...

ABSTRACT Rice and by‐products, such as rice bran (RB), defatted RB (DRB), rice husk (RH), rice straw (RS), and broken rice, represent abundant yet underutilized resources within the rice value chain. These fractions are nutritionally dense, containing proteins, lipids, dietary fibers, phenolics, and other bioactives that can be transformed into high ...

Value addition of corn husks through enzymatic production of xylooligosaccharides
Corn husks are the major wastes of corn industries with meagre economic significance. The present study was planned for value addition of corn husk through extraction of xylan, followed by its enzymatic hydrolysis into xylooligosaccharides, a pentose ...
