| Main Chain |
Karageenans are complex families of water-soluble, linear, sulphated galactans. They are composed of alternating 3-linked α-D-galactopyranose and4-linked β-D-galactopyranose or 4-linked 3,6-anhydro-β-D-galactopyranose, forming the disaccharide repeating unit of carrageenans. |
| Side Chain |
The sulphated galactans are classified according to the presence of the 3,6-anhydro-bridge on the 4-linked galactose residue, and position and number of sulphate groups |
