Xylo-oligosaccharide

Description

XYLO-OLIGOSACCHARIDE :

Short name: XOS, 

Molecular weight: 132n+18(n=2~7)

Molecular formula: C5nH8n+2O4n+1

Rang of MV:282-942

XOS is a functional polysaccharide formed by connecting 2-7 xylose molecules with β-1, 4 glucosidic bond, and is a super prebiotic.

Raw material: By enzymatic hydrolysis from Corncob

Function and Application

1.Gastrointestinal aspects: selective fermentation of colon microorganisms, increased concentrations of short chain fatty acids, decreased intestinal PH, and ultimately increased solubilization of minerals.  

2.The cell aspect: increased expression of calcium binding protein D9k and thus activated calcium diffusion channels.  

3.Xylooligosaccharides and laxative: Xylooligosaccharide probiotics improving body coordination, microenvironment, bacteria produce acidic substances in the process of growing.          

4.Prevention and protection of dental caries.
