Abstract
Polysaccharide from Bauhinia malabarica was isolated, purified, methylated, hydrolyzed, reduced and acetylated. The partially methylated alditol acetate (PMAA) derivative thus obtained was subjected to GC-MS studies. The following types of linkages were noticed: terminal-glucose,terminal galactose,terminal xylose 2-xylose, 4-glucose, and 4, 6-glucose.
