Effect of Gamma Radiation on Cycloheptaamylose

Cobalt-60 irradiation of cycloheptaamylose gives openchain oligosaccharides in the chromatographic range maltotriose-- maltoheptaose. Ring opening results in part from hydrolysis (to give maltoheptaose), but it is suggested that the principal reaction is local pyrolysis with destruction of one or more glucose units in the ring.
