    The production of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and inulooligosaccharides (IOS) of varying degrees of polymerization (DP) was optimized by orthogonal experimental designs using central composite design (CCD) and response surface methodology (RSM). The FOS produced were quantified and maximal GF2, GF3 and...
