Description

 

XYLO-OLIGOSACCHARIDE (XOS)
Abbreviation: XOS
Molecular Formula: C₅ₙH₈ₙ₊₂O₄ₙ₊₁ (n = 2~7)
Molecular Weight Range: 282 – 942 Da

Xylo-oligosaccharide (XOS) is a functional oligosaccharide composed of 2–7 xylose units linked by β-1,4 glycosidic bonds. It is recognized as a highly effective prebiotic.

Raw Material:
XOS is produced through enzymatic hydrolysis of corncob, ensuring a natural and sustainable source.

 

Physicochemical Properties


1.High Selectivity: Promotes the proliferation of beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus.
2.Enzyme Resistance: Not hydrolyzed by human or animal digestive enzymes, allowing it to reach the colon intact.
3.Acid and Heat Stability: Remains stable under acidic conditions and high temperatures, making it suitable for various processing applications.
4.Low Effective Dosage: Active at concentrations as low as 0.01–0.05%.

 

Mechanism of Action


1.Biological Role: XOS selectively stimulates the growth of beneficial gut bacteria while suppressing pathogenic species.
2.Biochemical Process: Beneficial bacteria ferment XOS to produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which lower intestinal pH, inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, and improve gut health.

Functional Benefits

 

1. Gut Microbiota Regulation: Enhances the proliferation of probiotics and inhibits harmful bacteria, alleviating constipation and diarrhea.

2. Detoxification: Reduces toxic fermentation products and bacterial enzymes in the gut.

3. Mineral Absorption: Improves the absorption and retention of calcium and iron.

4. Cardiometabolic Health: Helps lower serum cholesterol and blood pressure.

5. Hepatoprotection: Supports liver function.

6. Immune Modulation: Enhances immune responses.

7. Oral Health: Helps prevent dental caries.

8. Vitamin Synthesis: Promotes the production of B vitamins by beneficial bacteria.

9. Intestinal Motility: Stimulates bowel movement, reduces constipation, and decreases colon toxins.

10. Nutrient Utilization: Impro metabolic efficiency, digestion, and feed conversion ratio, supporting growth performance in animals.

11. Odor Reduction: Decreases fecal odor, improving rearing environment and air quality.

12. Antibiotic Alternative: Serves as a natural growth promoter, reducing the need for antibiotics.

 

Applications

 

Widely used in functional foods, animal feed, pharmaceuticals, and health products for its prebiotic and health-promoting properties.
