Prunes, the dried carcass of the plum are infamous for their interaction with the gastrointestinal tract. Now, carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy has been used in studies of gastroprotective compounds, pectins, found in prunes. The compounds are rhamnogalacturonans with type I arabinogalactans as side chains and insights into their structures and physiological effects could offer new insights into understanding gastric protection.
