The project will assess functional benefits of an isomalto-oligosaccharide preparation. Isomalto-oligosaccharides are functional oligosaccharides that are applied as functional food ingredients to reduce the caloric content and the glycemic load, as a source of dietary fibre, and to support homeostasis of intestinal microbiota. Regulatory approval of the products and the functional claims requires scientific support related to the digestibility and the impact on glucose homeostasis in humans. This project will evaluate the digestibility and the glycemic lead of isomalto-oligosaccharide in animal models and in humans. Experiments with the commercial product will be complemented with experimental oligosaccharide preparations with defined linkage type and degree of polymerization to improve our understanding on the digestibility of isomalto-oligosaccharides. The project will support marketing of a successful commercial product to secure long-term manufacturing capacity for functional oligosaccharides in Canada.

该项目将评估一种异麦芽寡糖制剂的功能益处。低聚异麦芽糖是一类功能性低聚糖，可作为功能性食品成分，减少热量含量和血糖负荷，作为膳食纤维的来源，并支持肠道微生物区系的动态平衡。这些产品和功能声明的监管批准需要与人体的消化能力和对葡萄糖稳态的影响相关的科学支持。该项目将评估低聚异麦芽糖在动物模型和人类中的消化率和血糖铅。商业化产品的实验将与具有确定的连接类型和聚合度的实验低聚糖制剂相补充，以提高我们对异麦芽低聚糖的消化率的理解。该项目将支持一种成功的商业产品的营销，以确保加拿大功能性低聚糖的长期制造能力。
