Ht. Duenaschasco et al., STRUCTURAL-ANALYSIS OF THE EXOPOLYSACCHARIDE PRODUCED BY PEDIOCOCCUS-DAMNOSUS-2.6, Carbohydrate research, 303(4), 1997, pp. 453-458
The exopolysaccharide produced by a ropy strain of Pediococcus damnosu
s (2.6) in a semi-defined medium was found to be an homopolymer compos

is, H-1, C-13, 1D and 2D NMR experiments the polysaccharide was shown
to consist of repeating units with the following structure. [GRAPHICS]
