[Depolymerisation of legume seed galactomannans by Celloviridin G20x]
Abstract:
The depolymerisation of legume seed Galactomannans by commercial preparation "Celloviridin G20x" to produce fragments of macromolecules with unchanged monomer ratio was studied. The hydrolysis of four galactomannans in whole range of monomer ratio for this phytopolysaccharide group 1.1-5.1 was performed by enzyme preparation, which is a sum of carbohydrases (producent--Trichoderma reesei). Degree of substitution 1,4-beta-D-mannopyranose chain on C-6 position by alpha-galactose residues had influence on values of molecular mass of final reaction products. The fragments with high yelds and monomer ratio nearly of that initial polysaccharides were obtained.
