Keeping Up the Momentum – Functional Products with GOS

At IIPM, we are currently working on obtaining galactooligosaccharides (GOS) and developing dairy product formulations with GOS – innovative functional food with prebiotic properties.

Application Potential of GOS

• Low sweetness and caloric value (up to 40% of sucrose sweetness, 7.1 kJ/g)
• Improvement of texture, viscosity and product structure
• Sensory appeal
• Health-promoting effect

Based on Zivkovic et al. 2011 (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22332060/)

The project aligns with the development of modern functional food, combining sensory quality with tangible health benefits
