Isomalto-Oligosaccharide(tapioca) Syrup

What is Isomalto-Oligosaccharide(tapioca) Syrup?

Isomalto-Oligosaccharide(tapioca) Syrup is a functional oligosaccharide syrup produced from high-quality cassava starch through enzymatic conversion. It mainly contains isomaltose, panose and other oligosaccharides, providing mild sweetness, excellent solubility and stability. As a prebiotic functional sugar, IMO syrup is widely used in beverages, dairy products, bakery products, confectionery, dietary supplements and other functional food applications. The production process mainly includes starch slurry preparation, liquefaction, saccharification, enzymatic transglycosylation, purification, decolorization, filtration and concentration, resulting in a clear to light yellow syrup with good flowability and processing stability.

Benefits

1.Natural functional oligosaccharide derived from cassava starch
2.Provides mild sweetness and good solubility
3.Acts as a prebiotic ingredient to support digestive health
4.Low sweetness profile suitable for sugar reduction formulations
5.Excellent stability under heat and acidic conditions
6.Helps improve texture and mouthfeel in food formulations

Applications

Widely used in functional beverages, dairy products, bakery products, confectionery, health foods, dietary supplements and other low-sugar functional food applications.

Specifications

Available in IMO 500 and IMO 900 grades, as well as Cassava-Based IMO, to meet various formulation requirements. Actual specifications are subject to the product specification sheet for each grade.
