Fructooligosaccharides(FOB),CAS No.: 308066-66-2 , also known as cane fruit oligosaccharides, from one to three fructose-based β (2-1) glycosidic bonds generated in conjunction with sucrose in the fructose-based triple sugar cane fruit, cane fruit sugar and cane fruit fivea mixture of sugar and so on. 100 g dry weight of Jerusalem artichoke, about 60-70 grams of inulin, inulin is a linear β-2, 1 - connected by the glycosidic chain fructan end of a sucrose base. Therefore, using inulin in Jerusalem artichoke powder as raw material to enzyme hydrolysis, eventually refined oligo fructose corn syrup.
Properties and mechanism of FOS
Oligofructose is a soluble dietary fiber, long-term use can reduce serum cholesterol and improve lipid metabolism, confirmed by animal and human studies. Oligofructose have the following physiological functions: utilized by bifidobacteria and other beneficial bacteria, that is, only the proliferation of 10 to 100 times, Bifidobacterium (pathogens), the effect of two-way adjustment. Human intake of fructo-oligosaccharides, the body of beneficial bacteria Bifidobacterium inhibit exogenous pathogens and intestinal natural spoilage bacteria such as Salmonella, such as growth and reproduction, growth and accumulation of reduce intestinal corruption substances, promote intestinal peristalsis, prevent constipation and diarrhea. Oligofructose is a good source of soluble dietary fiber, can effectively reduce the number of serum cholesterol, triglyceride, free fatty acids, such as hypertension, arteriosclerosis, high blood lipids and cardiovascular disease have a better improve. Fructo-oligosaccharides by bacterial fermentation in the large intestine to generate L-lactic acid, dissolved calcium, magnesium, iron and other minerals, and the promotion of human absorption of minerals.
