Table 1.
Compositions of major extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) fractions purified from H99 and JP02 strain (molar ratios).
| Fractions | Glucuronic acida | Xylosea | Mannosea | O-Acetylb |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| H99 P1 | 1.0 | 2.4 | 4.1 | 1.5 |
| JP02 P2 | 1.0 | 3.5 | 4.4 | 1.7 |
a
Calculated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester (ABEE)-labeled hydrolysate.
c
Estimated by the ratio of acetyl-methyl resonances to anomeric protons of mannose backbone in the proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectra.
