High Purity 99% Xylan CAS 9014-63-5 With Best Price
Product Description
Xylan (CAS number: 9014-63-5) is a group of hemicelluloses that are found in plant cell walls and some algae. Xylans are polysaccharides made from units of xylose (a pentose sugar). Xylans are almost as ubiquitous as cellulose in plant cell walls and contain predominantly β-D-xylose units linked as in cellulose.

Function
Xylan is one of the foremost anti-nutritional factors in the common use of feedstuff raw materials.
Xylooligosaccharides produced from xylan are considered as "functional food" or dietary fibers due to their potential prebiotic properties. Xylan can be converted into xylooligosaccharides by chemical hydrolysis using acids or by enzymatic hydrolysis using endo-xylanases. Some enzymes from yeast can exclusively convert xylan into only xylooligosaccharides-DP-3 to 7.
Application
1. In the pharmaceutical field:
As pharmaceutical raw materials for clearing heat, anti-inflammation, detumescence, and so on.
2. In the health product industry:
As products effective ingredients for improving blood circulation and soothing the nerves.
