title: Structural characterization of homogalacturonan by NMR spectroscopy-assignment of reference compounds.
abstract: Complete assignment of (1)H and (13)C NMR of six hexagalactopyranuronic acids with varying degree and pattern of methyl esterification is reported. The NMR experiments were run at room temperature using approximately 2mg of sample making this method convenient for studying the structure of homogalacturonan oligosaccharides.
