Tailoring the natural rare sugars D-tagatose and L-sorbose to produce novel functional carbohydrates.

Institute of Food Science Research, CIAL (CSIC-UAM), Nicolas Cabrera 9, 28049, Madrid, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- Scientists created new types of sugars called oligosaccharides from two rare sugars, D-tagatose and L-sorbose, using a special enzyme from bacteria.
- They found that the oligosaccharides made from D-tagatose were more common and better at resisting digestion in the body than those made from L-sorbose.
- The research shows that these new sugars could help improve gut health and might be useful as low-calorie sweeteners and prebiotics, which are good for our tummy bacteria.

Nowadays, there is a global concern over water quality and the impact of contamination on both natural ecosystems and human well-being. Plastics, ubiquitous in modern life, may release harmful chemicals when they reach aquatic environments. Among them, bisphenol A (BPA) and its alternatives, such as bisphenol S (BPS), bisphenol F (BPF), and others, are of special concern because their presence in water systems can have detrimental effects on human health and aquatic organisms due to their endocrine-disrupting properties.
