Isolation and characterization of a pure mannan from Oncidium (cv. Gower Ramsey) current pseudobulb during initial inflorescence development

A water-soluble and neutral polysaccharide was extracted from the current pseudobulbs of Oncidium 'Gower Ramsey' during the early inflorescence stage (flower stalk less than 4 cm) by hot water, precipitated with ethanol, and purified with an anion exchanger. From the data of monosaccharide...

Description
Summary:A water-soluble and neutral polysaccharide was extracted from the current pseudobulbs of Oncidium 'Gower Ramsey' during the early inflorescence stage (flower stalk less than 4 cm) by hot water, precipitated with ethanol, and purified with an anion exchanger. From the data of monosaccharide composition and linkage and anomeric configuration analyses, the polysaccharide was identified as a linear beta-1,4 linked mannan.
