Evaluating the addition of xylooligosaccharides into alginate-gelatin hydrogels
2021
Abstract Xylooligosaccharides (XOS) are emerging prebiotic that may improve structural features of biopolymer blends. The investigation around the conformation of XOS into the matrix of alginate and gelatin clarifies the potential applications of this formulation in the food industry as texture modifiers or encapsulation systems. Structural properties verified by flow behavior, SEM, XRD, and FT-IR demonstrated that the add up to 3% XOS into the alginate-gelatin blend formed a cohesive matrix, with smaller pores and crystalline structure, confirming the potential of xylooligosaccharides hydrogels for the development of functional and synbiotic foods.
