Galactomannan, a Surrogate Marker for Outcome in Invasive Aspergillosis: Finally Coming of Age
Detection of galactomannan has become widely available for diagnosing invasive aspergillosis. The test characteristics, using the Platelia™ enzyme-immunoassay, have been well described. This assay could potentially also be useful for the early evaluation

Rheological characterization of κ-carrageenan/galactomannan and xanthan/galactomannan gels: Comparison of galactomannans from non-traditional sources with conventional galactomannans [PDF]
Abstract The synergistic interactions of two non-conventional galactomannans ( Gleditsia triacanthos galactomannan (mannose/galactose ratio [M/G] = 2.82) and Sophora japonica galactomannan (M/G = 5.75)) with κ-carrageenan and xanthan were quantified and compared with those of two traditional galactomannans (guar gum—M/G = 1.8 and locust bean gum—M/

Microbial Dissimilation of Galactomannan [PDF]
SUMMARY: A number of obligately anaerobic rumen streptococci have been found capable of hydrolysing a mannan, galactomannan, contained in the endosperm of Cyamopsis tetragonaloba. Some of their morphological, cultural and physiological characteristics have been determined.
