| Abstract: | The identity of sorbitol (d-glucitol) from maize seeds was confirmed by GC/MS of the TMSi-ether and by co-chromatography with authentic sorbitol. Sorbitol was found in seeds and silks but not in pollen or leaves. Both endosperm and embryo contained sorbitol, but endosperm accounted for most of the sorbitol recovered from intact seeds. |
