Structural characterization and fermentation properties of a novel coix seed polysaccharide (CSP‐A) with prebiotic potential
A novel polysaccharide CSP-A was purified from coix seed. Compared to the CSP, the purified polysaccharide CSP-A showed higher utilization rate and better prebiotic activity. As well as promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria, CSP-A inhibits the growth of intestinal disorders. Therefore, CSP-A has potential to developed into prebiotic products. © 2025 Society of Chemical Industry.
