Investigating plant galactomannans [PDF]
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2002 AbstractThis paper presents a review of biological importance and occurrence of galactomannan in plants. Its chemical composition and structure are reviewed, and a short laboratory practical exercise on the isolation and determination of D‐mannose/D‐galactose ratio of plant galactomannan is presented.

Structural and thermal characterization of galactomannans from non-conventional sources [PDF]
, 2011 Galactomannans of Gleditsia triacanthos, Caesalpinia pulcherrima and Adenanthera pavonina were structurally and thermally characterized. Methylation analyses confirmed that these three galactomannans are composed by a 4-linked mannose polymer with ...

Rheological properties of concentrated solutions of galactomannans in an ionic liquid [PDF]
, 2012 The rheological behavior of galactomannans in concentrated solutions was examined by using dynamic viscoelasticity measurements. Concentrated solutions of three galactomannans, guar gum, tara gum, and locust bean gum were prepared with an ionic liquid 1 ...

Influence of galactomannan on the structure and thermal behaviour of xanthan/galactomannan mixtures [PDF]
Journal of Food Engineering, 1995 Mixed gels of xanthan gum and galactomannans (guar, whole and fractionated locust bean gum - LBG) were compared by means of oscillatory shear measurements. Whatever the LBG fraction, a synergistic maximum was observed when the ratio of xanthan to galactomannan was 1:1. However, the magnitude of this maximum varied with the LBG fraction used.
