Abstract
Deacetylated Polysaccharide S-60, prepared by deacetylating the polysaccharide S-60 produced by fermentation of Pseudomonas elodea, ATCC 31461, has valuable properties in both the clarified and non-clarified form, and is useful as an agar substitute or a shapeable room deodorant. The non-clarified deacetylated gum contains about 17% protein and principally carbohydrate, which comprises glucuronic acid (.about.13% based on wt. gum) and the neutral sugars rhamnose and glucose in the approximate molar ratio 3:2. The clarified, deacetylated gum contains mostly carbohydrate and no more than about 2% protein.
