【Megazyme】Fructans and FOS in Food and Infant Formula
Measurement of Fructans and FOS in Food and Infant Formula
Fructans and fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) are of increasing interest for manufacturers in areas as diverse as infant formula and animal feed. Fructans can serve as bulking agents, sweeteners, and as nutrients for digestive and immune health.
The potential benefits of fructan are evident for producers and consumers alike, but the accurate measurement of fructan in food and beverages presents a significant analytical challenge.
