Description Non-cellulosic and non-starchy (I2-KI negative) glucose-rich polysaccharides from wheat, ragi, rice and sorghum were extracted with water at ambient temperature (25oC). Ethanolic fractional precipitation of the polysaccharides yielded a number of fractions
containing varying proportions of hexoses (0.7±98%) and pentoses (1±56%). Polysaccharides from sorghum were also extracted at 4, 55oC and at boiling water temperature. Prior amylolysis of the sorghum flour followed by extraction at boiling water temperature
was found to give a better yield of non-starch glucose-rich polysaccharides.
