Fructooligosaccharides yields

Ammerman, E., Quarles, C., and Twining, P.V., Evaluation of fructooligosaccharides on performance and carcass yield of male broilers, Poultry Sci., 68, 167, 1989. 

Both fructooligosaccharide synthesis and sucrose hydrolysis are catalyzed by most of the fructosyltransferases and 3-fmctofuranosidases (invertases) in the presence of sucrose. The transferase hydrolase raho, which determines the maximum yield of fructooligosaccharide, depends basically on two parameters the concentra-hon of sucrose and the intrinsic enzyme properties, that is its ability to bind the nucleophile (to which a fructose is transferred) and to exclude H2O from the acceptor binding site [11].
