Xylo-Oligosaccharide Product Introduction:
Xylo-oligosaccharide, abbreviated as XOS, is a mixed long and short chain oligosaccharide of X2-X9. XOS is extracted from natural corncobs. Xylooligosaccharides are one of the strongest varieties of polysaccharides that can proliferate bifidobacteria. Its efficacy is nearly 20 times that of other polysaccharides.
There is no enzyme in the human gastrointestinal tract that hydrolyzes xylooligosaccharides, so it can directly enter the large intestine and be preferentially utilized by bifidobacteria, promoting the proliferation of bifidobacteria and producing various organic acids. Lowering the PH value of the intestine, inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria and promoting the proliferation of probiotics in the intestine to achieve the above-mentioned health benefits, is the secret of the health benefits of oligosaccharides.

XOS Production Process:
What’s the major features of XyloOligosaccharide(XOS)?
1. High efficiency prebiotics
XOS only need a very lowest dosage which is 0.7g/day. This high efficiency features make XOS have great advantage in food application with lower filling volume dosage forms, like tablets, granules, capsules or softgel.
2. Activation of bifidobacteria
Research have proved that XOS resulted in a significant increase in the genus Bifidobacterium, not change the structure of microecological flora directly, but significantly increases the abundance and proportion of beneficial bacteria, what’s more, activates intestinal microecology.
3. Super stability
XOS is very easy to use in different applications, its excellent processing performance make it to adapt lots of food processing conditions. XOS solution has no obvious change in pH 2.5-11 when heated at 100℃ for 1h and no change in pH4 at 180℃ for 30 minutes.
4. Lowest human digestibility
XOS has only 0.4% human digestibility. XyloOligosaccharide can almost completely go through the upper digestive system, arrive the intestines tract, and stimulate probiotics of the human intestinal tract adequately.
5. Friendly accompanying components
The major accompanying ingredients of XOS are xylose and arabinose, which are also cannot be metabolized by the human body.
6. Low water activity
The ultra-low water activity of 0.10 for XOS is lower than the request of the probiotic industry (less than 0.15), ensuring the maintenance of bacterial activity during the shelf life of probiotic products, reducing the drying process added by co formulation manufacturers to control water activity, and lowering production costs, production processes and quality risks.
The main function of XyloOligosaccharide(XOS)
1. Activate the intestinal tract beneficial bacteria and inhibits harmful bacteria
2. Promote nutrient synthesis and absorption and supply dietary fiber
3. Enhance human immunity and prevent dental caries
4. Bidirectional regulation of constipation and diarrhea
5. Maintain liver and kidney function
6. Regulate blood glucose and reduce cholesterol levels
FAQ:
1: How can I get a sample?
We can offer 20-200g free sample for your testing based on different products.
2: MOQ(Minimum Order Quantity)
MOQ is 25kg.
3: How do you control like pesticides residue, heavy metal, microbio, physical index or other Hazardous substances for each product?
We control them from raw material, will ask raw material supplier to test. After all items are qualified, materials are accepted by us. For heavy metal, microbio and physical index like assay finished products, we test in factory lab, for pesticides residue and other index we test it in third lab such as SGS and Eurofins or based on customer’s request.
4: When I will get reply for my inquiry?
Our sales will reply you within 24hours, if it is very urgent, please call us directly.
