Abstract:

The crude polysaccharides were prepared by ethanol precipitation method from the ferment liquid of fomes fomentarius. The polysaccharides were further purified with ion exchange chromatography and gel chromatography. Apart from this, the structure of polysaccharide was analyzed as well as its composition. The result showed that Fomes fomentarius polysaccharide displayed high homogeneity and was comprised of single polysaccharide, which was formed through the polymerization of galactose. The structure was analyzed by IR suggesting that the polysaccharide was in the form of pyranose containing α-glycosidic bond and C=O group.

Key words: Fomes fomentarius, polysaccharide, separation, purification, structural identification
