Oat β-Glucan is a functional soluble dietary fiber polysaccharide extracted from selected oat bran through controlled purification and separation technology. It is suitable for use in food systems where both nutritional enrichment and texture optimization are required.

In food formulations, oat β-glucan contributes to the structural behavior of complex systems by interacting with water and other macromolecules. It can influence viscosity, moisture retention, and product matrix formation, making it suitable for foods where texture stability and mouthfeel improvement are important.

Unlike conventional food additives, this product is approved as a new food raw material (Announcement No. 20 of 2014), positioning it as a clean-label functional ingredient rather than a chemical additive.

• Contributes to texture and structural consistency in food products
• Supports moisture retention in processed formulations
• Enhances system viscosity and mouthfeel in liquid and semi-solid foods
• Provides dietary fiber fortification without compromising product structure
• Natural β-1,3 / β-1,4 glucan structure with recognized health relevance
• EFSA reference intake support: ≥3 g/day for cholesterol-related benefit
• Clean-label compliant ingredient for modern food innovation
• Suitable for multi-phase food systems

• Yogurt and dairy-type products
• Bakery fillings and soft texture foods
• Sauces and semi-solid systems
• Nutrition bars and structured snacks
• Fiber-enriched processed foods

Oat β-Glucan is typically incorporated during hydration or mixing stages depending on system design. It hydrates gradually and interacts with water phase components, making it suitable for controlling viscosity and improving structural uniformity in finished products.

Recommended intake: ≤ 5 g/day
For cholesterol-related functional positioning: ≥ 3 g/day (EFSA reference level)

Store in a cool, dry, and sealed environment to maintain powder performance and hydration stability.

Shelf life: 24 months
