Abstract

The fructan of Streptococcus mutans OMZ 176 was shown to have a levan structure by comparing the chromatographic mobilities of the saccharides produced by partial acid hydrolysis of ghe fructan and known levan and inulin. This was confirmed by using concanavalin A as a lectin in a double-diffusion gel technique.
