DETAILS

Product Description

Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) (CAS 57-48-7) are short-chain fructose-based oligosaccharides naturally found in plants such as chicory, onions, garlic, and bananas. They are widely recognized as prebiotics, promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria and improving digestive health.

As a certified reference material, FOS Standard is essential for method validation, instrument calibration, and quality control (QC) in analytical laboratories for food, nutrition, and pharmaceutical research.

  • Naturally occurring prebiotic carbohydrates found in various plants.
  • Used in functional foods, dietary supplements, and gut health research.
  • High-purity standard (≥95%) ensures accurate, reproducible analytical testing.
  • Ideal for HPLC, LC-MS, and GC carbohydrate analysis methods.
  • Stable at room temperature, easy to store and handle.
  • Produced under ISO/IEC 17025 and GMP-compliant manufacturing processes.
