An integrated process to produce prebiotic xylooligosaccharides by autohydrolysis, nanofiltration and endo-xylanase from alkali-extracted xylan.

TL;DR: The enzymatic hydrolysates showed positive prebiotic effects on B. adolescentis with an increase in cell concentration by 4.8-fold after fermentation for 24 h and a final XOS conversion of 41.22% contrasted to the initial xylan in raw alkali-extracted xylan.

Hydrothermal treatment on depolymerization of hemicellulose of mango seed shell for the production of xylooligosaccharides.

TL;DR: This study evaluated the effect of pressure in a kinetic study of hydrothermal treatment to optimize the extraction of XOS from mango seed shell and found that total reducing sugars (TRS) values were close to the maximum in 15 min showing a slower rate for both pressures after this time, but at 10’MPa the value was 20 % lower than at 2.5 MPa.
