Abstract
Agar from Gelidium cartilaginium has been analyzed for D-galactose, 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose, and sulphate. From these analyses and a study of the products of mercaptolysis it is suggested that agar from this source be represented as a chain of alternating D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose residues with a half-ester sulphate on about every 10th galactose unit.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
