Inulin is used as a dietary fibre. The structure of the polymer can be described by the following structure: Sign in to download full-size image The composition of inulin pyrolysate obtained at Teq = 590°C, β = 20°C/ms, THt = 20 s, and housing temperature Thou = 280°C is ...
Being one of the most versatile functional food ingredients, inulin fructans are well known for their unique bifidogenic and prebiotic properties as well as techno‐functional properties including fibre enhancing, fat and sugar replacing and viscosity and texture modifying attributes in food systems. ...
fibre or to replace sugar and fat.Hellwege et al. (2000)have developedtransgenicpotato tubers which synthesize the full range of inulin molecules naturally occurring inglobe artichoke(Cynarascolymus). High-molecular-weight inulins have been produced by expressing thesucrose: sucrose 1-fructosyl...
Inulin belongs to a class of carbohydrates called Fructans. Inulin hasbeta2 - 1 bonds, which prevent inulin from being digested like a typical carbohydrate. Therefore, these bonds are responsible for its reduced caloric value and dietary fibre effects. Sources of Inulin Common sources of Inulin in...

Isoquercetin (ISO), a glucoside of quercetin (a common dietary flavonoid) that is commercially available in pure form, and inulin (INU), a non-digestible polysaccharide, were used as sources of flavonoid and fibre, which were added to a high fat (HF) diet and fed to male C57BL6 mice ...
Inulin and FOS are classified as soluble dietary fibre and for nutrition labeling purposes they are included in the total dietary fibre content in combination with dietary fibre components from different sources (Susilowati, Aspiyanto, & Ghozali, 2017). As a dietary fibre, the recommended daily int...
