Its molecular weight was estimated by gel filtration to be 50 000. Its total content of sugar was 94% by the phenol\|sulfuric acid method. Gas chromatography(GC) analysis indicated that it was composed of Xyl,Gal,Man,Glc and in the molar ratio of 0\^61∶3 12∶1 00∶3 97. The structure analysis of BRT, partial hydrolysis with acid, periodate oxidation, Smith degradation, methylation analysis,GC, GC/MS were used. The results revealed that BRT is of lowly branched structure. The main chain is made up of Gal and Glc, the inner is (1→6)\|linked\|Gal, the border is (1→6)\|linked\|Glc and (1→4)\|linked\|Glc, some of (1→4)\|linked\|Glc residues are substituted at 3 O. On average, there is 1 branch among 10 main chain residues. The side chain is composed of (1→3)\|linked\|Gal, (1→3)\|linked\|Glc, (1→4)\|linked\|Man and (1→6)\|linked\|Man. The nonreduced end is composed of Xyl and Glc. The main glycosidic link of BRT is of β configurations.展开更多
