Advanced structural profiling of arabinoxylans from cereal grains by high performance anion exchange chromatography with parallel pulsed amperometric and mass spectrometric detection.
Arabinoxylans (AX) are major hemicellulosic polysaccharides of cell walls of cereal grains. Potential health benefits and techno-functional properties of AX are determined, among others, by the extent and distribution of arabinofuranose (Araf) units as substituents along the β-(1 → 4)-linked d-xylopyranose (Xylp) backb...
