This interdisciplinary reference presents the physicochemical characteristics of fructans and their biological effects. Broken into three sections, The Book of Fructans begins by outlining the fundamentals of fructans, from their chemical and structural-functional features, to their presence in nature and their evolutionary aspects to the microbial, enzymatic, and plant-based production of fructans. The second section addresses the application of fructans, specifically, the agro/chemical applications of fructans; health, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications of fructans; and fructans in food and feed. The third section assesses the antiviral effects of fructans; fructans, fructose and FODMAPs, and fructans for life. Intended for food scientists, academicians, and students working in related fields The Book of Fructans will be a useful resource for all who wish to learn more about these water-soluble fructose-based oligo- and polysaccharides.
