62512-21-4 - Introduction

Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8 / GF7, also known as maltose octasaccharide, is a polysaccharide substance, composed of glucose and maltose molecules, with the following properties:

1. Physical properties: Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8 / GF7 is white crystalline powder, soluble in water but insoluble in organic solvents, with sweet taste.

2. Chemical properties: Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8 / GF7 is easily hydrolyzed into glucose and maltose by enzyme under acidic conditions. It can also occur at high temperature maltose isomerization reaction, produce glucose, maltose and glucose maltose mixture.

Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8 / GF7 is widely used in the food industry. It is often used in the production of candy, biscuits, chocolate and other foods to increase sweetness and improve taste. In addition, it is also used as an additive in medicine, health care products, cosmetics, etc.

The preparation method of Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8 / GF7 can generally be obtained by the reaction of maltose and enzyme. Firstly, maltose solution is added into appropriate amount of enzyme for enzymatic hydrolysis reaction, and then after evaporation, concentration and crystallization gave the Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8/GF7.

Based on current research, Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8 / GF7 is safe for most people's health. However, in certain populations, such as diabetics or maltose intolerants, excessive intake of Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8 / GF7 may cause elevated blood glucose or indigestion. Therefore, when using Fructo-oligosaccharide DP8 / GF7 should pay attention to moderate consumption, and consult a professional doctor or dietitian according to personal conditions.
