Enzymatic synthesis of fructo-oligosaccharides using Pectinex® Ultra SP-L: A study of experimental conditions

Abstract: The obvious benefits of employing prebiotics as functional components in many foods and feed products have resulted in higher demand for their industrial production, necessitating the development of more efficient and cost-effective manufacturing procedures. As a result, the goal of this study was to synthesize confirmed prebiotics, namely fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), using sucrose as a substrate, since it allows the synthesis of oligosaccharides with lower polymerization degree, and consequently, a more pro… Show more

“…The sc-FOS molecule occurrence and the ratio of individual fractions (GF2, GF3 and GF4) constantly changed. At the beginning of the reaction, GF2 represented the major component of the system, while at longer time intervals, the ratio of GF3 or GF4 to GF2 increased [7].…”

“…Viscozyme L and Pectinex Ultra SP-L have a high Ut to Uh ratio, notable thermal and pH stability and remarkable activity toward sc-FOS production. Therefore, they are often applied for sc-FOS production, as reported in several studies [4][5][6][7]. Viscozyme L and Pectinex Ultra SP-L are two commercial enzymes prepared from Aspergillus aculeatus and marketed for use in the processing of fruit juice.…”

“…5 These compounds are found in various fruits and vegetables, such as onions, asparagus, bananas and watermelon, and in fizzy drinks. 6 However, due to their low concentrations (typically 0.3-10%) and seasonal limitations, the extraction of FOS is not economically feasible from an industrial perspective. 7 FOS can be obtained using two enzymes, fructosyltransferase (FTase; EC 2.4.1.9) and ⊎-fructofuranosidase (FFase; EC 3.2.1.26).…”
