【Product presentation】

The delicate corn starch is raw material of the Isomaltooligosaccharide . Isomaltooligosaccharide is white powdered starch sugar products through the role of the enzyme, after liquefaction, concentration, drying and a series of process of delication . With functions of water soluble dietary fiber, it can significantly improve the body bifidobacterium's proliferation. Its low calorific value can prevent the features such as dental caries.So it is a kind of functional oligosaccharide and is used widely.

naturally transforms sucrose molecules into the functional health molecules of isomalto-oligosaccharide(IMO). The resulting product provides dietary fiber, prebiotic function and is a low caloric, anti-caries, nutritive sweetener. The proven health benefits of prebiotics include: suppresses cholesterol synthesis, lowers colonic pH thus increase absorption of dietary minerals and stimulates immune protection, etc.Herbon’s IMO exhibit a light sweet taste, with sweetness compared to sugar (sucrose) ~50-60%, and is stable in both extreme pH ranges (2.0-9.5) for an extended period of time and temperatures (160°C-180°C), making it an ideal candidate for addition into beverages and consumer food products.

IMOs are glucose polymers with α(1-6) linkages. These linkages are poorly digested in the human digestive tract and thus deliver fewer calories to the human body, in addition to providing prebiotic and fiber-like health benefits. Research shows that IMO is a more effective prebiotic compared to inulin and FOS, with 3 or above degree of polymerization (d.p.) being the core active ingredients. Herbon’s IMO is made up of at least 80% of 3 or above d.p. polymers. Our one step synthesis technology combined with the use of nano- filtration system to remove impurities ensures that we provide the most effective and pure products to our clients.

In addition to our portfolio of standard Dextran products, we also offer tailor-made products to our clients. These requirements could be special molecular weight (MW), special test parameters and new carbohydrates or derivates hereof. Please contact us if our standard product range does not meet your need.
