Prebiotic Potential of Agave angustifolia Haw Fructans with Different Degrees of Polymerization

Prebiotic Potential of Agave angustifolia Haw Fructans with Different Degrees of Polymerization

Inulin-type fructans are the most studied prebiotic compounds because of their broad range of health benefits. In particular, plants of the Agave genus are rich in fructans. Agave-derived fructans have a branched structure with both β-(2→1) and β-(2→6) linked fructosyl chains attached to the sucrose...
