What is Fructooligosaccharide: Prebiotic Benefits about?

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.
