After analyzing the syrup, we found that the predominant carbohydrate was a fructan with a degree of polymerization of around twelve.

Many people with irritable bowel syndrome try to limit foods high in fructans to reduce bloating.

Researchers found that fructanases in the soil microbiome increase plant drought tolerance by mobilizing stored carbohydrates.

During the fermentation experiments, we measured fructanase activity to determine how bacteria degrade inulin.

The plant's fructanohydrolase activity increased during cold acclimation, helping to mobilize stored carbohydrates.

Researchers discovered that fructanohydrolases play a crucial role in breaking down inulin during plant senescence.

Researchers discovered a novel fructansucrase that efficiently synthesizes long-chain fructans from sucrose.

Fructansucrases produced by certain bacteria catalyze the formation of levan from sucrose.
