Result
of Analyzing Xylan Hydrolyzate
An unidentified peak was detected
in the enzymatic degradation product from dulse xylan by HPLC analysis.The
material of this peak was analyzed
by GC-MS and NMR. As a result, we found that it is β-(1→3)/β-(1→4)-xylo-
triose, which is characteristic of
the structure of dulse xylan.
