Of a galactomannan

Rogers and Thompson208 used the action of this enzyme, and subsequent oxidation by bromine, to effect the conversion of a galactomannan into a galacturonomannan a similar sequence has been used with glycoproteins as a method for linkage analysis.209...

There are numerous gums of industrial interest, and some have been analyzed using pyrolysis. As an example, locust bean gum has considerable commercial value as a sizer for textiles and as a component of foods, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Its idealized structure is that of a galactomannan with the main chain of D-mannosyl units linked through the 1 and 4 positions as shown below ...

Figure 6 shows how the viscosity of a galactomannan solution increases until a certain point, after which it decreases due to the poor solubility of the resultant polymers. Similar modifications can also be carried out with other...
