Aqueous extractions (at 25 degrees C) of flours from six Greek wheat cultivars that differed in their bread-making quality, followed by porcine pancreas alpha-amylase digestion to remove starch contaminants and precipitation with ammonium sulphate (saturation at 95%), yielded arabinoxylan isolates with notable differences in molecular weight, ranging from 146,500 to 397,000, and in arabinose-to-xylose ratios (Ara/Xyl, varying between 0.57 and 0.71). The arabinoxylan isolates contained only small amounts of proteins and were relatively free of other polysaccharide contaminants. Generally a very high ratio of trans to cis-ferulic acid content was detected for all samples. The genotype also had an impact on the molecular characteristics of these polysaccharides. H-1 NMR spectroscopy revealed variations in the un-substituted (61.1-67.9%) and di- (19.4-28.1%) and mono-substituted xylose residues (10.0-16.6%). Using 2D NMR spectroscopy, it was feasible to identify the spin sequence of individual monosaccharide residues and elucidate their structure, despite the extensive Overlapping of H-1 and C-13 resonances. Differences in the physicochemical properties of the arabinoxylans, such as the critical concentration values (c* and c**), viscosity, shear-thinning behaviour, as well as the gelling ability, could not be fully explained by differences in molecular size and structure of the isolated polysaccharides.
