Abstract

The acid-soluble polysaccharide isolated from Spirulina contained glucose, principally, with small amounts of sulphate. The latter was removed by passing through a DEAE-cellulose column. Methylation analysis, periodate oxidation, chromium trioxide oxidation, oligosaccharide and enzymatic studies revealed the polymer to have an α-1,4 linked glucan backbone with frequent side chains through α-1,6 linked glucosyl residues.
