Abstract
The exocellular polysaccharide produced by the cyanobacterium Cyanospi ra capsulata has been subjected to partial acid hydrolysis and N-deace tylation-nitrous acid deamination. The oligosaccharides released have been isolated by weak anion exchange and aqueous size exclusion chroma tography, and characterized by a combination of 1D and 2D nuclear magn etic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, sugar compostion and l inkage analyses. The polysaccharide has an octasaccharide repeating un it with the following structure: [GRAPHICS] (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
