The polysaccharides produced by Aureobasidium pullulans, grown using glucosamine as the carbon source, were investigated by means of methylation analysis, affinity chromatography and NMR spectroscopy. The results indicated that, besides a small amount of pullulan, this micro-organism was capable of producing-in low yields-mixtures of at least two different complex polysaccharides containing mainly mannose and galactose. H-1 NMR spectra of two fractions obtained by lectin affinity chromatography indicated that one polymer was constituted exclusively of mannose residues while the other contained both galactofuranosyl and mannopyranosyl residues.
