Uses and synthesis of Raffinose powder

Raffinose powder is one of the most well-known trisugars in nature, which is composed of galactose, fructose and glucose. It is also known as melitriose and melitriose, and it is a functional oligosaccharide with strong bifidobacteria proliferation effect. Raffinose is widely found in natural plants, and contains varying amounts of raffinose in many vegetables (cabbage, cauliflower, potato, beet, onion, etc.), fruits (grapes, bananas, kiwi, etc.), rice (wheat, rice, oats, etc.), oil (soybeans, sunflower seeds, cottonseeds, peanuts, etc.). Raffinose is one of the main active components in soybean oligosaccharides, which are known as functional oligosaccharides.

Functions of Raffinose powder

1. In plants:
Energy storage: In plant seeds and rhizomes, raffinose can be used as a form of energy storage to provide energy for plant growth and development.
Stress resistance: Raffinose is believed to be involved in plant stress resistance, such as cold resistance, drought resistance, salt and alkali resistance, etc., helping plants adapt to adverse environments.
Osmoregulation: Raffinose may be involved in the osmotic regulation of plant cells to maintain cell turgor and water balance.

2. In the human body:
Almost no energy is provided: Since it is difficult to digest and absorb in the small intestine, raffinose is almost not directly absorbed and utilized by the human body, so the energy contribution is extremely low and can be ignored.
Prebiotic effect: After entering the large intestine, raffinose can be fermented and utilized by the intestinal flora, providing nutrition for beneficial bacteria, promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria such as bifidobacteria and lactobacilli, thereby improving the intestinal flora structure and playing a prebiotic role. The fermentation of raffinose by intestinal flora will produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), such as acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, etc. These short-chain fatty acids have many benefits for intestinal health.

Applicatuion of Raffinose powder

Food industry:
Prebiotic ingredients: Raffinose can be added to functional foods as a prebiotic ingredient, such as prebiotic biscuits, beverages, dietary supplements, etc., to promote intestinal health, by taking advantage of its prebiotic properties.
Low-calorie sweetener (limited): Due to its extremely low sweetness, it has little application value as a sweetener alone. However, it can be used in combination with other sweeteners to reduce the total calories of food, or used in certain specially formulated foods.
Animal feed: Cottonseed cake with a high content of raffinose can be used as animal feed to provide energy and dietary fiber for animals.

Research fields:
Prebiotic research: Raffinose, as a typical prebiotic, is widely used in intestinal flora research, such as studying the effects of prebiotics on the composition and function of intestinal flora, and the relationship between prebiotics and human health.
Plant physiology research: Used to study the mechanism of action of raffinose in plant growth and development, stress resistance, etc.
