Glucomannans of Serissa serissoides stem

  • Published:
Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

One β-D-glucomannan was isolated from Serissa serissoides (DC.) Druce. The average molecular weight of the polysaccharide was established to be 2.9 × 103 Da. The structure of the polysaccharide from S. serissoides (SSP) was investigated by using sugar and methylation analysis, infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and NMR spectroscopy. The experiments revealed that SSP consisted of β-D-Glcp and β-D-Manp units in the ratio of approximately 1.1:1 with β-D-(1→4)-Glcp and β-D-(1→2) Manp linkages.
