Preparation, Structural Elucidation, and In Silico Prebiotic Evaluation of Pectin Oligosaccharides from Apple Pectin
Pectin oligosaccharides (POS) recovered from agro-industrial by-products are attracting attention as candidate prebiotics, yet obtaining structurally defined neutral POS and screening their activity remains challenging. This study prepared neutral POS from commercial apple pectin by controlled acid hydrolysis (0.05 M T...
