... a relatively new polysaccharide gum with great potential. It is a complex, highly branched polymer of arabinose (1 part) and galactose (6 parts), found in the aqueous extract of the Western Larch tree, which is used for lumber production. The commercial source is Larix occidentalis, although other Larix species contain the polysaccharide. 4, record 3, English, - larch%20gum
