Description

Fructosyltransferase, Sucrose 1F- is a specialized enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of fructosyl units from sucrose to produce fructooligosaccharides (FOS). This product is critical for the efficient and controlled synthesis of prebiotic dietary fibers and functional sweeteners. It is essential for manufacturers in the food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries seeking to develop products that support digestive health and offer low-calorie sweetness.

Application

• Prebiotic Synthesis: Primary use in the enzymatic production of short-chain fructooligosaccharides (scFOS) like 1-kestose, nystose, and 1F-fructofuranosylnystose.
• Functional Food & Beverage Production: Ingredient for enhancing the fiber content and prebiotic functionality of dairy products, baked goods, cereals, and health drinks.
• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplement Formulation: Used in the manufacture of prebiotic supplements aimed at improving gut microbiota balance.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a biocatalyst in the synthesis of specific oligosaccharides for pharmaceutical applications.
• Research & Development: A key reagent for biochemical and enzymatic studies in academic and industrial R&D laboratories.
• Animal Feed Additives: Incorporated into feed to promote beneficial gut bacteria and improve animal health and growth performance.
