Abstract

Mango ripening is characterized by progressive depolymerization of hemicellulosic and pectic polysaccharides, with considerable loss of mannose, arabinose and galactose residues at the ripe stage. In this study, the structure and composition of hemicellulosic and pectic polysaccarides in unripe and ripe mangoes were determined by permethylation followed by GC-MS analysis, IR and 13C NMR measurements. Ripening-induced changes in the hemicellulosic and pectic polysaccharides were then elucidated.
