Popis: Samples of arabinogalactan (AG) were isolated by aqueous extraction from wood of different larch species (Larix sibirica Ledeb., Larix gmelinii (Rupr.) Rupr., Larix cajanderi Mayr., and Larix olgensis var. Koreana) and studied by HPLC, IR spectroscopy, and quantitative 13C NMR spectroscopy. The wood of the studied larch species was shown to contain significant amount of arabinogalactan (10–17% of the a.d.w. mass) and could be a source of its industrial production. The studied AG samples had similar structural and molecular-mass characteristics. This fact could facilitate the product standardization during its industrial production both from the wood of a single larch species and from mixed raw materials.
