GB/T 23528.3-2025 is the English-translated version of 低聚糖质量要求 第3部分:低聚木糖.
GB/T 23528.3-2025 is the Chinese national standard covering the oligosaccharide of two to nine xylose units made from corn cobs and stalks by steam explosion and enzymatic hydrolysis — the product classification, the maltodextrin allowed as a carrier, the colour of the syrup and the appearance of the powder, the dry matter and the pH, the transmittance that shows how far the refining has gone, and the determination of xylo-oligosaccharide content on which the grade rests. Part 3 of the series, with the isomaltooligosaccharide part GB/T 23528.4-2025. Issued on 25 April 2025, it has been in force since 1 May 2026, replacing GB/T 35545-2017.

Introduction
With the rapid development of food fermentation industry, oligosaccharide types have diversified, product quality has been improved, and product varieties have been enriched.
The industry has made great progress in technology and development. GB/T 23528 "Quality Requirements for Oligosaccharides" was formulated to improve the product quality and The normalization and standardization of detection methods is the basic work to regulate the industry order of oligosaccharides and related products and promote industrial development.
GB/T 23528 “Quality Requirements for Oligosaccharides” is planned to consist of four parts.
— Part 1: General. The purpose is to improve the product quality of the oligosaccharide industry.
— Part 2: Oligofructose. The purpose is to improve the product quality of the oligofructose industry.
— Part 3: Xylo-oligosaccharides. The purpose is to improve the product quality of the xylo-oligosaccharides industry.
— Part 4: Isomaltooligosaccharides. The purpose is to improve the product quality of the isomaltooligosaccharides industry.
