A certain number of acetyl groups, glucose and mannose molecular ratio of 1:1.5-1.7, molecular weight can be as high as 106 Daltons, high viscosity, soluble in water, swelling degree in water, has a specific biological activity. These characteristics determine that konjac polysaccharide has a variety of uses.
