Electron diffraction assessments of single crystals from inulin fractions indicate two antiparallel six-fold helices (Andre et al., 1996) a five-fold model has also been proposed (Marchessault et al., 1980). The hemihydrate molecule contains one water molecule for each two fructosyl units, while the monohydrate has one water molecule per fructosyl unit. When intermolecular hydrogen bonds are present, however, there is no evidence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding in the crystals. Crystal structures of 1-kestose (GF2) (Jeffrey and Park, 1972), nystose (GF3) (Jeffrey and Huang, 1993), and cycloinulohexaose (cF6) (Sawada et al., 1990) have been reported.
