    • The constitution of β-glucosan and its relationship to glucose, starch and cellulose 

      Oldham, John Walter Hyde (University of St Andrews, 1923) - Thesis
      The thesis is divided into two parts, which in turn are subdivided as follows: Account of the various methods for the preparation of glucosan. Proof of the constitution of glucosan, together with the general problem of its ...

    • The molecular constitution of inulin 

      McOwan, George (University of St Andrews, 1923-04) - Thesis
      The investigation on inulin, which forms the subject of the present thesis, is an extension of the earlier work of Irvine and Steele, who placed the study of this polysaccharide on an exact basis.
