Current state and latest advances in the concept, production and functionality of prebiotic oligosaccharides

Abstract: Prebiotic definition could change in the future with the aim to broad the concept 2.-Protein engineering tools are useful to make novel enzymes with glycosidase activity 3.-Seaweeds and marine microalgae are promising sources for prebiotic oligosaccharides 4.-Future research will focus on well-designed prebiotic dietary interventions 5.-Research needed on underlying mechanisms of action and on human intervention studies *Highlights (for review)

“…There have been two methods for lactosucrose production [8]. One is to transfer the β-galactosyl group produced by the decomposition of lactose to the C4 hydroxyl group of glucosyl in sucrose by the catalysis of β-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23); The other is to transfer the fructose group produced by the decomposition of sucrose to the C1 hydroxyl group at the reducing end of the lactose by the catalysis of βfructofuranosidase (EC 3.2.1.26) or levansucrase (EC 2.4.1.10).…”

“…One way to achieve this is by improving the nutritional quality of food and increase the spread of functional foods, nutraceuticals and dietary Correspondence: Veselin Bivolarski (morydin@abv.bg), Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology, Plovdiv University "Paisii Hilendarski", 24 Tzar Assen Str., 4000 Plovdiv, Bulgaria Abbreviations: DP, degree of polymerization; GH70, glycoside hydrolase family 70; GOSs, glucooligosaccharides; M/S, maltose / sucrose; L/S, lactose / sucrose; R/S, raffinose / sucrose; L., Leuconostoc; Lb., Lactobacillus; LAB, lactic acid bacteria; μ, specific growth rate; mMRS, modified medium of de Man, Rogosa and Sharpe supplements [1]. In this regard, the concept of prebiotics is gaining an ever wider realization in the practice of producing healthy foods [2,3]. On the basis of the scientific knowledge that has accumulated up to now, it is clear that oligosaccharides and polysaccharides of microbial origin have proven prebiotic properties, and are particularly desirable sweeteners in the low-calorie foods [4,5].…”

“…is also a recognized prebiotic for the treatment of constipation and systemic portal encephalopathy (Corzo-Martínez et al, 2013). Given the huge interest in recent years towards the gastrointestinal function and new structures with improved properties, new routes to obtain a second-generation of prebiotic oligosaccharides are being explored (Moreno et al, 2017). This is the case of the oligosaccharides derived from lactulose (OsLu).…”
