Summary of the technology
Process for the purification of xylooligosaccharides based on the use of diafiltration. The present invention, entitled "process for the purification of xylooligosaccharides based on the use of diafiltration", claims a process applicable to the purification of xylooligosaccharides obtained by hydrolytic degradation (chemically and/or enzymatically) of the hemicellulosic fraction of plant biomass in aqueous medium. The hydrolysis liquors contain xylooligosaccharides together with other unwanted components, which must be eliminated to allow the use of xylooligosaccharides for food purposes. This objective is achieved through diafiltration (possibly, in combination with other physical-chemical operations that are described in the text of the application). The use of fractions containing purified xylooligosaccharides as food ingredients with prebiotic properties, applicable in human nutrition and animal feed, is claimed.
Details of the Technology Offer
The invention focuses on a process made up of physical-chemical treatments, in which diafiltration plays a fundamental role in achieving a degree of purity that allows the development of applications in the food field.
Applications
The present invention makes it possible to obtain fractions containing purified xylooligosaccharides as food ingredients with prebiotic properties, applicable in human nutrition and animal feed.
