Abstract

The work is focussed on the production of xylooligosaccharide (XOS), a widely acknowledged prebiotic, by utilizing the xylan extract which was obtained by autohydrolysis of Corn cob which yielded 62.5±0.7 g total sugar/kg. Partially purified xylanase obtained from an indigenous strain of Aureobasidium pullulans was found to be efficient in the production of XOS. One factor at a time (OFAT) approach was used for optimizing the production of XOS upon which the resultant yield obtained was 6.2±1.5 mg/ml of XOS in 50 minutes. The prebiotic was then studied for its stability in acidic pH. Furthermore, the produced prebiotic was then infused in MRS medium and evaluated for its stimulatory effect on the growth of Lactobacillus
