Abstract
Eluates were subjected to enzymatic and chemical hydrolysis, then to HPLC analysis. The high and medium MW polysaccharides were rich in galacturonic acid. Low MW were rich in neutral sugars. The storage-induced differences in sugar composition revealed that the most important changes are loss of galacturonic acid in medium MW fragments, increase of glucose, rhamnose and arabinose and depletion of mannose-galactose units in low MW fragments.
