Inulin is a natural fructose polymer that can be used as a fat substitute in foods such as dairy products and bakery products and is often added to food products due to its effect on the regulation of intestinal flora (also known as the prebiotic effect). However, there are few studies exploring whether there are functional differences between fructose species with different degrees of polymerization (DP). Therefore, we focused on the separation of fructose species with different DP and their different effects on the balance of intestinal flora...
