[#1983-02] Structural Analysis of the Beta-D-Glucan Extracted with Aqueous Zinc Chloride from the Fruit Body of Grifola frondosa, K. Kato et al.

Structural Analysis of the Beta-D-Glucan Extracted with Aqueous Zinc Chloride from the Fruit Body of Grifola frondosa Kato, K, Inagaki, T, Shigagaki, H, Yamauchi, T, Okuda, K, Sano, T, Ueno, Y Department of Agricultural Chemistry, Gifu University The defatted fruit-body of G. frondosa ( maitake ) was successively extracted with water and 10% aqueous zinc chloride in an autoclave. The polysaccharide (F4) extracted with the zinc chloride solution had [alpha]D +7.9deg(c 0.3, 4% sodium hydroxide) and was composed of beta-D-glucose. From the...

[#1983-01] Maitake: Kato, K et al ‘Structural Analysis’

Structural Analysis of the Alkali-Soluble β-D-Glucan from the Fruit Body of Grifola frondosa Kato, K., Inagaki, T., Teranishi, T., Yamauchi, R., Okuda, K., Sano, T., Ueno, Y. Department of Agricultural Chemistry, Gifu University The polysaccharide was extracted from the fruit body of Maitake (G. frondosa) with 10% sodium hydroxide. It was further fractionated, to afford F7 (precipated by neutralization of the extract) and F8 (unprecipitated). F7 and F8 were found to be homogeneous β-D-glucans and they had [α]D +10deg and +3.3deg (c0.3, 4%...
