Lactose-Derived Prebiotics: A Process Perspective is the first scientific reference to provide a comprehensive technological overview of the processes to derive oligosaccharides from dairy for use in functional foods. With their combined 90+ years in industry and research, the authors present the functional properties of prebiotics derived from lactose and the production technology required to make them. The book focuses on process engineering and includes an overview of green chemistry processes involving enzyme biocatalysis, providing detailed coverage of the use of whey lactose as raw material for producing oligosaccharides. The book's focus on processes and products allows the reader to understand the constraints and impacts of technology on lactose-derived prebiotics.
Presents the challenges of and opportunities for deriving oligosaccharides from lactose Details the technologies and methods required to produce lactose-derived prebiotics, including a comparison between chemical and enzymatic synthesis Discusses the potential use of whey as a raw material for the synthesis of non-digestible lactose-derived oligosaccharides Provides a process engineer perspective and includes valuable information about kinetics and reactor design for the enzymatic synthesis of lactose-derived oligosaccharides

Enzymatic Production of Oligosaccharides: From Basic Research to Industrial Production, a volume in the Foundations and Frontiers of Enzymology series, covers the enzymes used for the extraction, synthesis, or modification of oligosaccharides, the biochemical properties of those enzymes, and potential technological applications. The book is divided into three parts, the first of which shares the fundamentals on the enzymatic synthesis of oligosaccharides. The book then explores the enzymatic production of oligosaccharides, considering a range of different oligosaccharides and production processes. Final sections cover the technological properties of oligosaccharides and potential applications across the chemical, biochemical, biotechnology, and food industries.This is a useful reference for researchers working with oligosaccharides across biochemistry, enzymology, biotechnology, food chemistry and related fields.
Focuses on a range of different oligosaccharides, including chito-oligosaccharides, xylo-oligosaccharides, galacto-oligosaccharides and lactulose-derived oligosaccharidesIncludes various production processes of oligosaccharides, such as enzymatic production and microbial productionAnalyzes enzyme reactors used for oligosaccharides synthesisDiscusses the downstream processing of oligosaccharides for product separation and purificationConsiders food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutic applications of oligosaccharides
