Abstract
⺠The evolution of agave fructans thermal acid hydrolysis products is reported for the first time. ⺠Oligofructose and fructose concentration through the hydrolysis reaction may be related with the fructose equivalent index. ⺠Partially hydrolyzed agave fructans combine prebiotic and sweetening properties. ⺠The evolution of products during the hydrolysis reaction is analysed with the aid of HPAEC-PAD and related to the FE index. ⺠A treatment with Pichia pastoris may be applied to selectively eliminate the resulting monosaccharides.
