Az agávé-inulin (pontosabban: agávé-fruktánok, „agavins”) az agávé (pl. A. tequilana) tönkjéből nyert, elágazó fruktóz-polimerek keveréke: β(2→1) és β(2→6) kötéseket tartalmaznak, gyakran belső glükóz egységgel (neo-fruktán/graminan típus). E szerkezeti sajátosság különbözik a klasszikus, lineáris (csak β(2→1)) cikória-inulintól. PMC+2pubs.rsc.org+2Az USA-ban 2023-ban az FDA „no questions” levelet adott az agave mixed fructans használatára (GRN 1019), korábbi agávé-fruktán beadványra 2012-ben is „no questions” született (GRN 854). (Ez nem 21 CFR szerinti formális „affirmation”, de a biztonsági értékelés pozitív.) U.S. Food and Drug AdministrationAz EU-ban a székletgyakoriságra vonatkozó jóváhagyott egészségállítás kifejezetten „natív cikória-inulinra” (≥12 g/nap, átlagos DP ≥9) érvényes — ez nem automatikusan terjeszthető ki az agávé-fruktánokra.
