Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Results of studies on the content of raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) in plants of 11 species of the Leguminosae family are presented. It is clearly shown that plants of the Leguminosae family, especially of the lupin species, are the richest source of these sugars among the plants tested. A simple method of preparative isolation and purification of RFOs from bitter lupin extract was developed. This method seems to be useful for efficient isolation of oligosaccharides from plant material for further nutritional tests.
