摘要

Process for obtaining products with prebiotic power from sugar beet pulp. The process refers to the processing in aqueous medium of the solid by-product (pulp) obtained in the sugar industries that use sugar beet as raw material. The sugar beet pulp has a high content of pectins and hemicelluloses, which can be fractionated by hydrothermal processing under suitable conditions to obtain a liquid phase containing (among other compounds) soluble polymeric or oligomeric products caused by hydrolysis of pectins and hemicelluloses. The usefulness of the hydrothermal processing of sugar beet pulp is claimed to obtain prebiotic food ingredients that have the oligomeric or polymeric nature referred to.
