摘要
A set of four MCs (DS 1.80-1.95) has been analyzed with regard to their substituent pattern in the glucosyl units and along the polymer chain. The average heterogeneity of methylation observed for the entire material was analyzed in more detail after fractionation according to polarity. All fractions obtained were analyzed with respect to their DS, monomer composition and deviation from a random distribution of these monomers in the polymer chains. By this approach, heterogeneity of first and second order could be differentiated. While for three of the MCs only a minor DS-gradient over the material was observed, a more pronounced heterogeneity of first order was obtained for MC 4.
