1. What is Oat Beta-Glucan 70%? (Standard & Gluten-Free)
Oat Beta-Glucan (CAS 9041-22-9) is a high-purity linear polysaccharide. Exbiol® isolates the 70% fraction using an Aqueous Green Extraction process that preserves the active β-(1,3/1,4) chains. Crucially, our Certified Gluten-Free Grade ensures zero cross-contamination, making it the premier choice for the burgeoning Clean Label and Celiac-safe functional food markets.
2. Available Grades & Customization Matrix
| Grade Name | Key Technical Feature | Primary Application |
|---|---|---|
| Exbiol® Ultra-GF | Gluten < 20ppm (ELISA Checked) | Clean Label Bakery, Vegan Shakes |
| Exbiol® Hydro-Sol | Low Viscosity (~95kDa) | RTD Beverages, Clear Functional Drinks |
| Exbiol® Premium 70 | Standard High Purity Isolate | Hard-Shell Capsules, General Supplements |
3. Source & Origin
Exbiol® sources non-GMO oats exclusively from GAP-compliant high-latitude regions. We utilize an Aqueous Green Extraction process. By avoiding chemical solvents and using ultra-filtration membrane separation, we preserve the triple-helix structure of the glucan chains, ensuring 100% biological property support for cholesterol-binding receptors.
4. Mechanism of Action
The efficacy of Oat Beta-Glucan is driven by its Viscosity-Mediated Entrapment. In the digestive tract, it forms a high-molecular-weight gel that traps bile acids and dietary cholesterol, increasing their excretion. At a cellular level, it interacts with the Dectin-1 receptors on immune cells, providing a functional property of immune-signaling modulation.
Rheology Engineering (Mw Control)
Industrial challenge: Excessive gumming in beverages. Exbiol® solve this via Precision Ultra-filtration. By maintaining Mw at ~95kDa, we ensure 100% pourability in 5% solutions, whereas standard glucans gel at 1.5% inclusion.
Thermal Stress Stability
Our 70% fraction is engineered for Retort and UHT conditions. Validated testing at 121°C for 15 minutes shows <2.0% degradation of active β-(1,3/1,4) chains, ensuring label claim compliance after sterilization.
Hygroscopicity Management
High-purity glucans are prone to caking. We utilize Fluid-Bed Anti-Aggregation technology to ensure an 80-mesh free-flowing powder, perfect for high-speed automated capsule and sachet filling.
5. Application Benefits
- Cardiovascular Support: Functional property for supporting healthy LDL levels (EFSA Compliant).
- Glycemic Homeostasis: May support a functional reduction in postprandial glucose response.
- Dermal Soothing: Formulation advantage: Superior water-holding capacity for medical-grade barrier repair.
Purity Identity: Oat Beta-Glucan 95kDa Isolate
Label Integrity: Carrier-free Oat Beta-Glucan (Zero Maltodextrin)
Compliance: EFSA Compliant Heart Health Ingredients
Safety Verification: ELISA Tested Gluten-free (<20ppm)
Rheology & Molecular Control
Unlike generic oat flours, Exbiol® offers Customized Molecular Weight (80k – 120k Da). This allows R&D engineers to balance biological functional properties (cholesterol binding) with fluid dynamics, preventing the “Sludge Effect” in liquid beverages while maintaining maximum metabolic flux.
Gluten-Free Compliance
Our Ultra-GF Grade is validated via ELISA R5 Mendez Methodology to ensure Gluten < 20ppm. We utilize a closed-loop aqueous isolation system, ensuring zero cross-contamination from field to final fiber drum, satisfying the most rigid French and US food safety audits.
6. Application & Grade Matrix
Low viscosity Oat Beta-Glucan is our primary engineering breakthrough. Unlike generic fibers that create a “sludge” effect, our 95kDa isolate remains pourable at 5% concentration, making it the ideal EFSA compliant heart health ingredient for clear functional beverages and RTD shots.
| Application Grade | Key Technical Feature | Benefit to Manufacturer |
|---|---|---|
| Industrial Beverage Grade | Low Viscosity (~95kDa), High Clarity | Zero sedimentation in RTD shots |
| Pharma Capsule Grade | High Tap Density, 80-Mesh Flow | 1% weight variation in automated lines |
| Ultra-GF Grade | Gluten < 20ppm (Certified) | Safe for Celiac-Friendly baked goods |
7. Industrial Evolution
The industry has moved from crude oat flour (5% glucan) to second-gen 20-30% extracts. Exbiol’s Third-Generation 70% Isolate represents the transition to “Concentrated Active Platform” technology, allowing for therapeutic doses in small serving sizes without the “sludge” mouthfeel of legacy ingredients.

15. Industrial Market Trends: Strategic Outlook 2026
The global soluble fiber market is pivoting from bulk fillers to Concentrated Functional Isolates. Exbiol® satisfies the three primary macro-trends driving Tier-1 procurement:
- The “Carrier-Free” Mandate:
Clean-label brands are removing maltodextrin. Our 70% powder is Zero-Additive (100% Oat Bran Extract), satisfying Vegan and Ultra-Clean label claims. - GLP-1 Synergy Sourcing:
The rise of metabolic medications is creating a massive secondary market for high-purity oat glucans to manage satiety and digestive transit health naturally. - ESG & Supply Chain Transparency:
Direct factory sourcing with Non-GMO and ELISA-verified Gluten-Free status is now a mandatory KPI for North American and EU retail giants.
“In 2025, ‘Natural’ is no longer enough. For manufacturers like you, ‘Certified Gluten-Free (< 20ppm)’ is the new baseline for market entry. Sourcing Exbiol® 70% isolate protects your brand from the risk of celiac cross-contamination recalls while significantly reducing your serving size volume.”

17. Technical FAQ (Closed-Loop Decision Center)
Q: Does Exbiol maintain ready-stock of the Ultra-GF grade for bulk wholesale? (Ref: Section 11)
+
Yes. We maintain a strategic rolling buffer of 5,000kg of Exbiol® Ultra-GF in our climate-controlled logistics hub. This eliminates the 4-6 week lead time standard with other manufacturers, allowing for immediate production line restarts and reducing your Inventory Carrying Cost.
Q: How is the 70% assay verified specifically for Beta-Glucans vs. other polysaccharides? (Ref: Section 08)
+
We utilize AOAC Method 995.16 (Enzymatic-HPLC-RI). This pharmaceutical-grade method uses specific lichenase and beta-glucosidase enzymes to hydrolyze only the β-(1,3/1,4) glucan chains. This distinguishes our high-purity isolate from starch-based fillers (Alpha-glucans) common in low-purity oat flours, ensuring 1:1 match with your label claims.
Q: What is the “Viscosity-to-Concentration” ratio in liquid RTD formulations? (Ref: Section 06)
+
Thanks to our Precision Ultra-filtration, we maintain a weight-average Mw at ~95kDa. Industrially, this means a 5% aqueous solution remains pourable (<500 cP). Standard market glucans often gel at 1.5%, making them impossible for high-dose beverage formulations. Exbiol allows for the required 3g/day heart health dose in a single 250ml serving.
Q: Is your Piceatannol/Beta-Glucan certified ETO-free for European market entry? (Ref: Section 03)
+
Our facility strictly prohibits the use of Ethylene Oxide. We perform Headspace GC-MS screening for every industrial lot. This ensures zero-risk customs clearance in rigid jurisdictions like France and Germany, where ETO residuals trigger immediate product recalls.
Q: How do you prevent ‘Browning’ or ‘Caking’ in bulk storage? (Ref: Section 10)
+
We utilize Nitrogen-Blanketed Vacuum Sealing. By removing the oxygen headspace in our 25kg drums and utilizing 1.0mm heavy-duty PE liners, we prevent the auto-oxidation of the glucose chain. Our real-time stability data confirms a >99% active retention and stable color profile over 24 months.
Q: Can Exbiol provide custom particle sizes for high-speed encapsulation? (Ref: Section 14)
+
Yes. While our standard is 80 mesh, we offer Fluid-Bed Agglomerated Granules or 120-mesh micronized powder. For OEM partners, we optimize the Carr Index and Hausner Ratio to ensure high-speed automated capsule filling with <1% weight variation.
