Methodology part Introduction The aim <strong>of</strong> this study was to prepare fractions <strong>of</strong> arab<strong>in</strong>o‐oligosaccharides with different cha<strong>in</strong> length and feruloyl substitutions. The different oligosaccharides were assessed for prebiotic properties us<strong>in</strong>g human fecal <strong>in</strong> vitro fermentations. Flow diagram The author, Louise K. Vigsnæs, performed the small scale <strong>in</strong> vitro fermentations, and conducted the quantification <strong>of</strong> the bacterial taxa after fermentation. Louise K.

In this work the arab<strong>in</strong>an-rich fraction result<strong>in</strong>g from sugar beet pulp based pect<strong>in</strong> production was separated by Amberlite XAD hydrophobic <strong>in</strong>teraction and membrane separation <strong>in</strong>to four fractions based on feruloyl substitution and arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharide cha<strong>in</strong> length: short-cha<strong>in</strong> (DP 2 10) and long-cha<strong>in</strong> (DP 7 14) feruloylated and nonferuloylated arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides, respectively. HPAEC, SEC, and MALDI-TOF/TOF analyses <strong>of</strong> the fractions confirmed the presence <strong>of</strong> s<strong>in</strong>gly and doubly substituted feruloylated arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides <strong>in</strong> the feruloyl-substituted fractions. In vitro microbial fermentation by human fecal samples (n = 6 healthy human volunteers) showed a selective stimulation <strong>of</strong> bifidobacteria by both the feruloylated and the nonferuloylated long-cha<strong>in</strong> arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides to the same extent as the prebiotic fructooligosaccharides control. None <strong>of</strong> the fractions stimulated the growth <strong>of</strong> the potential pathogen Clostridium difficile <strong>in</strong> monocultures. This work provides a first report on the separation <strong>of</strong> potentially bioactive feruloylated arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides from sugar beet pulp and an <strong>in</strong>itial <strong>in</strong>dication <strong>of</strong> the potentially larger bifidogenic effect <strong>of</strong> relatively long-cha<strong>in</strong> arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides as opposed to short-cha<strong>in</strong> arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides. KEYWORDS: prebiotics, arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides, feruloyl substitution, hydrophilic <strong>in</strong>teraction chromatography, Clostridium difficile ’ INTRODUCTION Sugar beet pulp is a large side stream from the <strong>in</strong>dustrial production <strong>of</strong> sugar. Currently, the ma<strong>in</strong> utilization <strong>of</strong> sugar beet pulp is for cattle feed, but pect<strong>in</strong> can be extracted for a limited number <strong>of</strong> applications. In sugar beet pect<strong>in</strong> the side cha<strong>in</strong>s <strong>of</strong> rhamnogalacturonan I (RGI) are especially rich <strong>in</strong> arab<strong>in</strong>an composed <strong>of</strong> R-(1,5)-l<strong>in</strong>ked backbones with a high degree <strong>of</strong> R-(1,2) and/or R-(1,3) arab<strong>in</strong><strong>of</strong>uranosyl substitutions 1 along with some β-(1,4)-l<strong>in</strong>ked galactan. The side cha<strong>in</strong>s <strong>of</strong> sugar beet RGI can be feruloyl substituted either on O-2 <strong>in</strong> the ma<strong>in</strong> backbone <strong>of</strong> R-(1,5)-l<strong>in</strong>ked arab<strong>in</strong>an, on O-5 <strong>in</strong> the term<strong>in</strong>al arab<strong>in</strong>ose, 2 or on O-6 <strong>in</strong> the ma<strong>in</strong> backbone <strong>of</strong> galactan. 3 The content <strong>of</strong> ferulic acid can be up to 8.3 mg/g pect<strong>in</strong>. 4 The feruloyl substitutions can either be present as monomers or form dimers with other side cha<strong>in</strong>s through oxidative coupl<strong>in</strong>g reactions. 5 Diferulic cross-l<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g plays an important role <strong>in</strong> plant texture. 6 Sugar beet pect<strong>in</strong>-derived arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides with DP 2 6 and DP < 8 have been reported to selectively stimulate bifidobacteria over clostridia, lactobacilli, and bacteroides <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong> vitro fecal fermentations. 7,8 Moreover, <strong>in</strong> s<strong>in</strong>gle-culture studies it has been shown that l<strong>in</strong>ear arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides may be utilized by Bifidobacterium adolescentis, Bifidobacterium longum, and Bacteroides vulgatus, but not by other bifidobacteria or the tested lactobacilli. 9 The biological effect <strong>of</strong> oligosaccharide feruloyl substitution on gut microbiota has so far ma<strong>in</strong>ly been <strong>in</strong>vestigated for arab<strong>in</strong>o-xylo-oligosaccharides. Feruloylated arab<strong>in</strong>o-xylo-oligosaccharides were shown to stimulate the growth <strong>of</strong> Bifidobacterium bifidum <strong>in</strong> a s<strong>in</strong>gle-culture study, 10 xylo-feruloyl-arab<strong>in</strong>ose from grass cell walls has been reported to be metabolized by rat gut microbiota, 11 and recently ferulic acid was found to be released from durum wheat oligosaccharides dur<strong>in</strong>g digestion by human <strong>in</strong>test<strong>in</strong>al microbiota. 12 Moderate feruloyl substitution was shown not to impede the degradation <strong>of</strong> maize cell wall by human <strong>in</strong>test<strong>in</strong>al microbiota. 13 Probiotic bacteria such as bifidobacteria and lactobacilli have been shown to be able to specifically express feruloyl esterase activity <strong>in</strong> the presence <strong>of</strong> feruloylated substrates. Bifidobacterium sp., <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g B. longum, thus express feruloyl esterase activity <strong>in</strong> the presence <strong>of</strong> wheat bran, rye bran, barley spent gra<strong>in</strong>, and larchwood arab<strong>in</strong>ogalactan, 14 and Lactobacillus acidophilus expresses feruloyl esterase activity <strong>in</strong> the presence <strong>of</strong> destarched wheat bran. 15 These studies on arab<strong>in</strong>oxylan-derived oligosaccharides are not directly comparable to feruloyl-substituted arab<strong>in</strong>o-oligosaccharides, because feruloyl substitution <strong>in</strong> r 2011 American Chemical Society 6511 dx.doi.org/10.1021/jf200996h | J.
