  • Title: Identification of xanthans isolated from sugarcane juices obtained from scalded plants infected by Xanthomonas albilineans.
    Author: Fontaniella B, Rodríguez CW, Piñón D, Vicente C, Legaz ME.
    Journal: J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci; 2002 Apr 25; 770(1-2):275-81. PubMed ID: 12013236.
    Abstract:
    The exudate gum produced by Xanthomonas albilineans, a specific sugarcane pathogen, has been isolated from juices of diseased sugarcane stalks, hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid, and the hydrolysate analyzed by capillary electrophoresis. Sucrose. cellobiose, mannose, glucose, glucose-1-P and glucuronic acid were identified as the major components of the polysaccharide isolated from diseased stalks. Juices from healthy stalks contained maltose instead of cellobiose. The chemical nature of this polysaccharide is discussed.
