Description The structures of naturally occurring and enzymically synthesized oligosaccharides, consisting of fructose and glucose residues and having d.p. 3-8, in the stem of Agave vera cruz have been investigated by using methylation analysis, mass spectrometry, and p.m.r. spectroscopy. The naturally occurring trisaccharides were identified as l-kestose and neokestose, and the tetrasaccharides as nystose and at least one other related to neokestose. The higher fractions consist of mixtures of (branched) oligosaccharides related 10 l.kestose, neokestose, or 6-kestose as basic structures. The enzymically synthesized trisaccharide was i~entified as l-kestose, and the tetrasaccharide as nystose. The higher fractions consist of mixtures of linear oligosaccharides reiated to l-kestose and neokestose.
