Fermentation profile — microbiological activity by degree of polymerisation

Relative fermentation activity of gut bacterial strains and butyrate production by DP — based on in-vitro fermentation data at 24h. Short-chain FOS (DP 2–10) is rapidly and preferentially fermented by Bifidobacterium; long-chain inulin is fermented more slowly but deeper in the colon, producing more butyrate.

Relative fermentation activity (%) by DP — in-vitro data, 24h incubation, literature values
Bifidobacterium bifidus
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Bacteroides spp.

FAQ

Inulin bulk — key technical questions

Inulin is a natural fructan polysaccharide extracted from chicory root (Cichorium intybus) by hot water diffusion. Chicory roots contain 15–20% inulin. The extract is purified and spray-dried — no solvents, no chemical modification. Inulin has no E-number and is declared as 'chicory inulin' on labels.
Native inulin (DP 2–60, avg ~12): standard product from chicory — best for most food applications. FOS (DP 2–10): shorter chains, sweeter (15–20% of sucrose), faster fermented, more bifidogenic. HP-inulin (DP >23): longer chains, forms gels, excellent fat replacer, slower fermented. FDCM supplies native inulin.
EU Regulation 432/2012 approves: 'Chicory inulin contributes to maintenance of normal bowel function by increasing stool frequency' — at ≥12 g/day. Generic fibre claim: 'Dietary fibre contributes to normal bowel function' at ≥10 g/day total fibre intake.
Yes — inulin forms a creamy gel structure in water that mimics fat mouthfeel. Formula: 1g fat = 0.25g inulin + 0.75g water. Calorie savings: fat 9 kcal/g vs inulin 1.5 kcal/g (EU) = 87% calorie reduction in replaced portion. Maximum fat reduction without quality loss: 30–50% depending on application. Best: dairy products, dressings, ice cream.
