A rapid method for the determination of plant cell all neutral polysaccharides is described. A two-step acid hydrolysis procedure, suitable for a wide range of plant cell wall materials, has been developed. The effect of several parametes (substrate paritcle size, reaction time, temperature) on the hydrolysis rate of various substrates (microcrystallin cellulose, wheat straw, beet pulp, soybean hull, sunflower husk) has been studied. Among tested parameters, sample particle size and primary hydrolysis temperature predominantly affect acid degradation of plant cell wall polysaccharides. Maximal substrate hydrolysis rate is obtained with finely ground materials (average particle size 80 .times. 10-3 mm) submitted to a 30-min primary hydrolysis carried out at 25.degree.C in 72% sulfuric acid, followed by a 120-min secondary hydrolysis in boiling 2 N sulfuric acid. Neutral sugars released by hydrolysis are quantitatively determined, after reduction and acetylation, by gas-liquid chromatography. In the optimized procedure, alditol acetates are totally recovered and reagents interfering in chromatographic separation are eliminated. The validity of the proposed procedure has been tested with various plant materials.
