“…Such assays are performed wherever the presence of α-amylase needs to be determined, for example, in the human serum, urine, various physiologically active substances, and various food products, among others [ 23 ]. The most frequently used for alpha-Amylase assay are BpNPG7 (non-reducing-end blocked p-nitrophenyl malto-heptaoside) [ 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ] and ethylidene-4-NP-G7 (4-nitrophenyl-4,6-ethylidene-alpha-D-maltoheptaoside) [ 30 , 31 ] which are also parts of commertial kits. Beta-Amylase assay using PNPβ-G3 (p-nitrophenyl-β-D-maltotrioside) [ 27 , 32 ] and BpNPG7 [ 26 ] was reported as well.…”

Maltooligosaccharides (MOS) are homooligosaccharides that consist of 3–10 glucose molecules linked by α-1,4 glycosidic bonds. As they have physiological functions, they are commonly used as ingredients in nutritional products and functional foods. Many researchers have investigated the potential applications of MOS and their derivatives in the pharmaceutical industry. In this review, we summarized the properties and methods of fabricating MOS and their derivatives, including sulfated and non-sulfated alkylMOS. For preparing MOS, different enzymatic strategies have been proposed by various researchers, using α-amylases, maltooligosaccharide-forming amylases, or glycosyltransferases as effective biocatalysts. Many researchers have focused on using immobilized biocatalysts and downstream processes for MOS production. This review also provides an overview of the current challenges and future trends of MOS production.
