The Role And Efficacy Of Galactomannan

Galactomannan (GM) or galactomannan is a polysaccharide containing a mannose backbone and galactose side groups. More precisely, galactomannan is a polysaccharide with a linear (1-4)-linked β-D-mannose backbone connected to alpha-D-galactose at their 6-linkage points, i.e., 1-6-linked alpha-D-galactopyranose. Some plants and fungi contain galactomannan components.
