Food ingredients that promote health and reduce the risk of disease are becoming increasingly popular, and thefood industry is being challenged to redesign traditional foods for optimal nutritional value. Non-digestible oligosaccharides (NDOs) possess important physiological properties that are beneficial to the health of consumers, including non-cariogenicity, a low calorific value and the ability to stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria in the colon. Many NDOs are not digested by humans. This property makes them suitable for use in sweet, low-calorie diet foods, and for consumption by individuals with diabetes. In addition to physiological properties, NDOs provide several physicochemical benefits, which make their use as food ingredients particularly attractive. NDOs are water soluble and mildly sweet (typically 0.3 to 0.6 times as sweet as sucrose). Their relatively low sweetness is useful when a bulking agent with reduced sweetness is desirable to enhance other food flavours. The higher molecular weight of NDOs (as compared to mono- and disaccharides) provides increased viscosity, leading to improved body and mouthfeel. BioNeutra is a manufacturer of high quality NDOs. The company currently supplies food manufacturers with VitaFiberTM IMO (isomaltooligosaccharide), and has demonstrated traction in the wholesale market with the ingredient showing utility in a wide variety of processed food products. The goal of this project is to develop recipes where the replacement of sucrose with IMO results in products of very similar characteristics and with good consumer acceptance. The outcomes of this project should support BioNeutra's expansion into the retail and direct-to-consumer markets by showcasing IMO's versatility and application in a variety of end products.

促进健康并降低疾病风险的食品成分越来越流行，而食物行业正受到重新设计传统食品以获得最佳营养价值的挑战。不可消化的寡糖（NDOS）具有重要的生理特性，这些特性对消费者的健康有益，包括非钙化性，低热量价值以及刺激结肠中有益细菌生长的能力。许多NDO并没有被人类消化。该特性使它们适合于甜，低热量的饮食食品以及糖尿病患者的食用。除生理特性外，NDO还提供了几种理化的好处，这使它们用作食品成分特别有吸引力。 NDOS是水溶性和中等甜的（通常是蔗糖甜的0.3至0.6倍）。当希望降低甜度的散装剂可增强其他食物口味时，它们的甜度相对较低。 NDO的分子量较高（与单糖和二糖相比）可提高粘度，从而改善身体和口感。 Bioneutra是高质量NDO的制造商。该公司目前为食品制造商提供了Vitafibertm IMO（Isomaltooligosacchilide），并在批发市场表现出了吸引力，其成分显示了各种加工食品的实用性。该项目的目的是开发食谱，在其中替代蔗糖用IMO替代具有非常相似特征和良好消费者接受的产品。该项目的结果应通过展示IMO在各种最终产品中的多功能性和应用来支持Bioneutra向零售和直接面向消费者市场的扩展。
