Cas No: 62512-21-4

Description: Bioven Ingredients Fructo-Oligosaccharides are a form of carbohydrate. The term saccharide is another word for sugar, and an oligosaccharide is a molecule made up of a small group of these sugars. Fructooligosaccharides are used as alternative sweeteners because they carry less calories than sugar; they do not cause a spike in blood sugar.

Commercial Use: Major uses are in beverages, infant milk powders, confectionery, bakery products, yoghurts and dairy desserts. Research continues into the development of new oligosaccharides with a range of physiological properties and applications in the food industry.
