title: [Determination of polysaccharides of Dendrobium candidum in test-tube culture].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the diversities of polysaccharides content of Dendrobium candidum and its test-tube culture.
  
  
  METHODS
  The content of polysaccharides was determined by colorimentry.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The content of polysaccharides extracted from Dendrobium candidum was higher than that of test-tube culture.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The content of polysaccharides in protocorm is higher than that in test-tube plantlet.
