Las aplicaciones industriales de los FOS abarcan la sustitución de grasas al incluirse como ingrediente de mayonesas ligeras y quesos bajos en calorías, contribuyen a la reducción del contenido calórico (sucedáneos de chocolate) y a la retención de agua (pastelería, panificación, embutidos), evitan la formación de cristales (heladería), emulsionan (margarinas) y en general modifican la textura o cremosidad de algunos alimentos. Son edulcorantes, por lo que tienen buenas propiedades organolépticas (aquellas que se aprecian por los sentidos) y se pueden incorporar fácilmente a alimentos. 1, record 2, Spanish, - fructooligosac%C3%A1rido
