Abstract
The electrophoretically homogeneous glucomannan isolated from konjac flour was composed of d-glucose and d-mannose residues in the approximate ratio of 1: 1.6. Controlled acid hydrolysis gave 4-O-β-d-mannopyranosyl-d-mannose, 4-O-β-d-mannopyranosyl-d-glucoseT 4-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-d-glucose(cellobiose), 4-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-d-mannose(epicellobiose), O-β-d-mannopyranosyl-(1→4)-O-β-d-mannopyranosyl-(1→4)-d-mannose, O-β-d-glucopyranosyl- (1→4)-O-β-d-mannopyranosyl-(1→4)-d-mannose, O-β-d-mannopyranosyl-(1→4)-O-β-d-glucopy- ranosyl-(1→4)-d-mannose and O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-d-mannose.Keywords
