Rheological characterization of κ-carrageenan/galactomannan and xanthan/galactomannan gels: Comparison of galactomannans from non-traditional sources with conventional galactomannans [PDF]
Carbohydrate Polymers, 2011 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/

Encapsulation effects of galactomannans combined with xanthan on the survival of two lactic strains under simulated digestive hostilities [PDF]
European Journal of Biological Research, 2022 Galactomannans are the main component of locust bean gum from the fruit of the carob tree, Ceratonia siliqua L. They are a reserve of polysaccharides, found in the translucent endosperm of the seeds.

Determination of the physical functionality of galactomannans in kappa-carrageenan/galactomannan mixed systems by periodate oxidation [PDF]
Food Chemistry, 1994 Galactomannan samples of different origins (guar gum, tara gum, and locust-bean gums), with mannose-to-galactose (M/G) ratios from 1.7 to 4.8, have been characterized. They exhibited strong differences with respect to their molecular weight and their fine structure (M/G). The different locust-bean-gum samples differed significantly in this respect from

Issues with galactomannan testing [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 2006 Within the past decade detection of the aspergillus antigen galactomannan has become an important and reliable tool for the early diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis. The galactomannan molecule, that is detected by the commercial sandwich ELISA (Platelia Aspergillus, Biorad), was found not to be a single molecule, but a family of molecules that have ...

Microbial Dissimilation of Galactomannan [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1960 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.

Locust Bean Gum, a Vegetable Hydrocolloid with Industrial and Biopharmaceutical Applications
Molecules, 2022 Locust bean gum (LBG), a vegetable galactomannan extracted from carob tree seeds, is extensively used in the food industry as a thickening agent (E410). Its molecular conformation in aqueous solutions determines its solubility and rheological performance.

Prognostic Features of Galactomannan Antigenemia in Galactomannan-Positive Invasive Aspergillosis [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2010 ABSTRACT Prognostic features of serum galactomannan (GM) remain poorly defined in patients with GM-positive invasive aspergillosis (GPA). We identified 93 patients with proven or probable invasive aspergillosis (IA) and GM values of ≥0.50 from January 2005 to March 2009.
