| Abstract | Guadua is a genus of woody bamboos, native to the American continent, which comprises economically important species. Cell wall polysaccharides from young shoots of Guadua chacoensis showed glucuronoarabinoxylans (GAX) as the major hemicellulosic components (65%, of the recovered carbohydrates by extraction with aqueous solutions), which were obtained in major quantities with 1 M KOH (molar ratio Xyl:Ara:GlcA, 100:28:8). AGP and pectin polymers, as well as mixed linkage glucans and xyloglucans were present in smaller amounts (16% and 15%, respectively). Alternative extraction of GAX with solutions of DMSO allowed the characterization of alkali labile substituents, in particular, acetyl groups, which were linked mainly to C3 or, to a lesser extent, to C2 of some of the xylose residues. Besides, small amounts of phenolic compounds, released by saponification, were detected, linked to C5 of some α-L-arabinofuranose units. These results could be relevant for their use as a new resource for the food industry. |
