Pre-treatment of corn bran for production of arabinoxylan based prebiotics
Arabinoxylan (AX) degrades to (arabino)xylooligosaccharides [(A)XOS] through enzymatic hydrolysis. AX and (A) XOS are considered as dietary fibers and are associated with many health benefits, including immunomodulatory activity. (A)XOS includes both xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and arabino xylooligosaccharides (AXOS). The current research aims to develop a process for production of xylan fibers,
