Soybean cell wall material was depectinated by extraction with a hot chelating agent and a cold dilute alkali. The hemicelluloses were solubilised from the residue with 1 and 4 M KOH solutions, resulting in 1 M Alkali Soluble Solids (1 MASS) and 4 M Alkali Soluble Solids (4 MASS) fractions. The poly...
