What is Alginate Oligosaccharide?
Alginate Oligosaccharide Powder (AOS) are low-molecular-weight functional oligosaccharides found in natural brown algae. AOS possesses a smaller molecular weight, superior water solubility, and higher bioactivity, and has garnered significant attention in recent years in the fields of functional foods, agriculture, biomedicine, and cosmetics. Studies have shown that alginate oligosaccharides have promising application potential in areas such as immune regulation, antioxidation, and moisturizing repair. Currently, alginate oligosaccharides are widely used in functional beverages, dietary supplements, biostimulants, and skincare products.
YTBIO offers alginate oligosaccharide products with stable specifications, molecular weights ranging from 1000-3000 Da, and provides sample testing, Certificate of Appointment (COA), and flexible MOQ services.
Production Process
Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) are typically prepared from sodium alginate, a component of brown algae such as kelp, giant kelp, Sargassum, and Laminaria japonica.
Currently, AOS production usually uses sodium alginate as the base material, prepared through processes such as degradation, purification, and drying.
1. Dissolution
First, the sodium alginate raw material is dissolved in acid to form a homogeneous and stable reaction system.
2. Degradation
Large alginate molecules are degraded into oligosaccharide structures through high temperature, acid hydrolysis, or enzymatic hydrolysis.
3. pH Adjustment
After degradation, neutralization is usually required to adjust the pH of the system.
4. Decolorization and Purification
To improve product purity and appearance, further decolorization and impurity removal treatments are performed to reduce residual pigments, salts, and other impurities.
5. Concentration and Drying
The purified liquid is concentrated and then processed into powder products through processes such as spray drying, which facilitates storage, transportation, and end-use applications.
What are the functions?
Health Benefits：
1. Improve immunity
Regulate the immune system, activate the immune system
2. Anti-aging
Fucoid oligosaccharide has a good scavenging effect on reactive oxygen radicals such as superoxide anion and hydroxyl radicals that cause aging, and its effect is significantly higher than that of VC and carnosine.
3. Antibacterial activity
Inhibits harmful bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.
4. Prevent Alzheimer's
Improve the activity of choline acetylase in the cerebral cortex to protect neurons from damage and improve the memory level of the elderly.
5. Increase bone density and effectively treat osteoporosis
It has a good effect on promoting the regeneration and repair of articular cartilage, and can be used for the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
6. Aids in lowering cholesterol
Decreases serum cholesterol levels by reducing intestinal absorption of cholesterol
7. Growth regulation
Algin oligosaccharides are also important signaling molecules in plants, which can promote plant growth and improve plant resistance to pests and diseases.
The field of cosmetics
1. Anti-radiation, anti-aging
Fucoid oligosaccharide has anti-ultraviolet radiation ability and has a good scavenging effect on oxygen free radicals that cause skin aging.
2. Antibacterial effect
Fucoid oligosaccharide has obvious inhibitory effect on the growth of bacteria, whether it is Gram-negative or positive bacteria, the algae oligosaccharide can effectively inhibit its growth, showing spectrum antibacterial activity.
3. Moisturizing effect
Fucoid oligosaccharide is rich in hydrophilic hydroxyl and has outstanding moisturizing performance, which is far superior to glycerol and PEG600. Compared with the popular moisturizing product hyaluronic acid, fucoidan oligosaccharide has better moisturizing performance and is a new type of cosmetic moisturizer. .
4. Effectively adsorb toxic heavy metal ions
Fucoidose has a special structure of hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, which makes them have a strong chelating effect on certain heavy metal ions.
Direction of Application
Food field
As a food material or additive, it is used in the food industry and added to condiments, dairy products, and fruit juices, which not only enriches the taste of the product, but also increases nutrition, and has the effect of removing heavy metal ions and reducing blood sugar.
Cosmetics
Fucoid oligosaccharides have a wide range of applications in the field of cosmetics due to their biological functional diversity.
Feed field
Brown algae oligosaccharide overcomes the shortcomings of all previous antibiotics, prebiotics, enzyme preparations, etc., with low dosage, pure natural, no residue and strong stability, and can improve the disease resistance of animal bodies, promote animal growth, and increase animal nutrition. It is an excellent feed additive.
Animal husbandry feed additives: pigs, cattle, chickens, etc.
Aquaculture feed additives: sea cucumber, abalone, shrimp, etc.
In the agricultural field, algae oligosaccharides can stimulate the plant immune system, improve disease resistance, promote cell activation, and stimulate plant growth.
Application Prospects of Alginate Oligosaccharides in the Food Industry
With increasing consumer focus on natural sources, clean labels, and functional foods, alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) exhibit good solubility, stability, and various bioactivities, thus showing application potential in food processing, functional foods, and nutritional health products.
Seafood Preservation
Alginate oligosaccharides are considered to have the potential to replace some traditional chemical water-retaining agents. By forming structural stabilizing effects with proteins in aquatic products, alginate oligosaccharides help reduce moisture loss during refrigeration and, to a certain extent, maintain product elasticity, texture, and stability. Furthermore, alginate oligosaccharides can help improve quality stability during refrigeration.
Functional Foods
The application of alginate oligosaccharides in the functional food field is expanding, and they can be widely used in the development of nutritionally fortified products.
Currently, fucoidan oligosaccharides (AOS) are increasingly being used in: functional beverages, solid beverages, prebiotic formulations, dietary supplements, specialty foods, and pet nutrition products. AOS are also frequently used in combination with probiotics, dietary fiber, and plant extracts.
Specialty Nutrition Products
Due to its excellent processing stability and solubility, AOS is suitable for the development of liquid beverages, meal replacement powders, and fortified formulations.
In the future, fucoidan oligosaccharides are expected to see wider application in the high-end functional food sector. Compared to traditional artificial additives, fucoidan oligosaccharides have advantages such as natural marine origin, easy processing, and rich functional properties, making them more in line with modern consumers' demands for healthy foods.
