Table II. Carbohydrate compositions (weight percentage) of individual oligomer peaks purified (QAE-Sephadex or HPLC ion-exchange separation, respectively) from mixtures of citrus pectin oligomers or B fruit extracts Compositions shown are for peaks whose biological activity is described in Figure 4. Uronic acid values are based on colorimetric assay. Proportions of neutral sugars were determined by GC and adjusted so that totals equal 100%. In fact, some oligomers (G7 peaks 8, 9 and 10. B extract peak 10) produced small (less than 1 % of the total integrated area), unknown peaks in the GC chromatograms.
