:Arabinoxylan
Description:
Arabinoxylan is a hemicellulosic polysaccharide primarily found in the cell walls of cereal grains, particularly in wheat and rye. It is composed of a backbone of xylose units, which are often substituted with arabinose side chains. This structure contributes to its functional properties, such as water solubility and gel-forming ability, making it valuable in food and pharmaceutical applications. Arabinoxylan is known for its prebiotic effects, promoting gut health by stimulating the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. Additionally, it has been studied for its potential health benefits, including cholesterol-lowering effects and modulation of blood sugar levels. In terms of physical properties, arabinoxylan is typically a white to off-white powder, and it is soluble in water, forming viscous solutions. Its applications extend to the food industry as a thickener, stabilizer, and dietary fiber source, as well as in the production of biofuels and bioplastics. Overall, arabinoxylan is a versatile biopolymer with significant implications in nutrition and material science.

Arabinoxylan (Medium viscosity)
CAS:Arabinoxylan is a primary hemicellulosic polysaccharide found in the cell walls of monocotyledonous grass crops. It consists of a backbone made up of β-(1→4)-linked xylopyranosyl residues.Color and Shape:SolidArabinoxylan
CAS:Arabinoxylans consist of α-L-arabinofuranose residues attached as branch-points to β-(1,4)-linked D-xylopyranose main chains. These may be 2- or 3-substituted or 2- and 3- di-substituted. The arabinose residues may also be linked to other groups attached such as glucuronic acid residues, ferulic acid cross links and acetyl groups. Arabinoxylans generally consist of between 1500 - 5000 residues.
