Abstract:

A homogeneous polysaccharide(SDOP) was obtained from the fresh Dendrobium officinale. The relative molecular mass and composition of monosaccharide were then determined by gel permeation chromatography-laser scatter(GPC-LS) and high performance liquid chromatography with pre-column derivatization using 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone(PMP) as derivatization agent. The detailed chemical structure of SDOP was elucidated by means of infrared spectroscopy, methylation analysis and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(NMR). The result shows that SDOP with an Mw of 1.66×106 consists dominantly of mannose and glucose in a molar ratio of 4.9∶1.0. The results of NMR and methylation analysis suggest that SDOP is a 1,4-linked O-acetylated glucomannan, with a small amount of branch and end signal, while acetyl groups are mainly attached to the O-2 or O-3 positions on saccharide ring.
