Nystose is a tetrasaccharide fructooligosaccharide that has gained attention in the field of food science and carbohydrate research. As an oligosaccharide, it is often studied for its role as a prebiotic, contributing to the understanding of how specific dietary fibers affect gut microbiota composition and activity. In plant studies, nystose is examined as part of fructan metabolism, providing insights into carbohydrate storage, osmoregulation, and stress responses in plants. Its structure, consisting of multiple fructose units attached to a terminal glucose, makes it a model compound for enzymatic synthesis research, where the focus is on the specificity and mechanism of fructosyltransferase enzymes. Additionally, nystose serves as a reference compound in the development of analytical techniques for the quantification and characterization of oligosaccharides in various matrices, enhancing the analytical toolbox for carbohydrate analysis.
