  3. What is the distribution of the Degree of Polymerization (DP) of this chicory root inulin? Is it native inulin, meaning the non-fractionated mixture with mono-/di-/oligo-saccharides (DP3-9) and polysaccharides (DP>9)?

    1 answer
    1. Degree of polymerization (DP) for product I2255 is not part of the product specification, and has not characterized. This value is therefore unknown and may vary on a lot to lot basis.
