    Fructooligosaccharide (FOS) is a prebiotic, low calorie sweetener that promotes the growth of bacteria in the colon. It can be synthesized through hydrolysis reactions using enzymes like Levanase and Inulinase, or through transfructosylation reactions with enzymes such as Inulosucrase and Levansucrase. FOS can be partially purified using activated charcoal and eluting with an ethanol solution in a gradient from 0-50% ethanol concentration.

    Fructooligosaccharide (FOS)

    - Prebiotic
    - Low calories sweetener
    - Promote the growth of bacterial in the colon

    Synthesis by hydrolysis reaction of enzyme such as Levanase,


    Inulinase.
    Or transfructosylation by Fructansucrase such as Inulosucrase and
    Levansucrase.

    We can partially purify the FOS by using activated charcoal by eluting


    with gradient of Ethanol solution.

    From 0 50% of EtOH.
