Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are short-chain prebiotic oligosaccharides (DP 3–5) composed of fructose units linked to a terminal glucose.We supply bulk Fructooligosaccharides sourced from leading China manufacturers, available in powder and liquid forms for food and beverage manufacturers worldwide. Our Fructooligosaccharides is widely used in synbiotic supplements, functional dairy fortification, paediatric nutrition, confectionery and meal replacements.
Fructooligosaccharides are produced either by enzymatic transfructosylation of sucrose using fungal β-fructosidase, or by partial hydrolysis of inulin from chicory root.
The resulting product contains kestose (GF2), nystose (GF3) and fructofuranosyl-nystose (GF4) at ≥95% purity. FOS provides 30–60% sucrose sweetness with only 2 kcal/g, zero glycaemic response, and clinically proven prebiotic effect.
