摘要：

A β-d-glucan of low molecular weight isolated from the marine alga Caulerpa simpliciuscula has been shown to contain 30 glucose residues. At least 27 of these are β-d-(1→3) linked. There are 1-2β-(1→6) branches per molecule, with a maximum of 4 d-glucose residues per side chain. As normally isolated, this glucan is associated with a soluble (1→4)-α-d-glucan (soluble starch) of the same molecular weight, in the ratio of 3 molecules of β-d-glucan per molecule of α-d-linked glucan. © 1979.
