2′-Fucosyllactose is a trisaccharide that was found in breast milk in the 1950s . It is therefore a human milk oligosaccharide (HMO). The isolation method most widely used today has been in use since 1972. It also occurs in faeces . It works equivalent to 3′-fucosyllactose .

Extraction and isolation

This substance can be produced in large quantities by E. coli .

The isolation takes place as with other HMO. For this purpose, the fats , proteins and most of the lactose are first split off and, after filtration with a Sephadex gel, paper chromatography is carried out. Sometimes electrophoresis is also required. In the meantime, however, enzymatic approaches are also used for the synthesis of 2'-fucosyllactose.

use

Like other oligosaccharides, 2′-fucosyllactose has the ability to protect against infectious diseases by preventing toxins and pathogens from adhering to the epithelium. It is known that 2′-fucosyllactose protects against, among other things, Campylobacter jejuni , Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium and Helicobacter pylori . In the United States , the FDA has approved it for use in baby food at a concentration of 2 g / L or less. It has also been used in assays for glycosyltransferases in blood groups A and B.
