Description

1-Kestose is a trisaccharide composed of fructose and sucrose molecules (Collins, 2006) and occurs in sugar cane, honey, and maple syrup, where it is formed by enzymatic action. As the main group of fructooligosaccharides, kestoses share similar physiological effects with other fructooligosaccharides. Kestoses have shown potential in promoting the growth of probiotics including Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Bifidobacterium to a higher degree than other fructooligosaccharides. Thus, the production of kestoses using food-grade microorganisms may be beneficial to their application in the food industry (Ni, 2021).
