SUMMARY The article presents the results of a study of polysaccharides in the herb of gynostemma pentafila, indroduced on the territory of the Republic of Bashkortostan. Several polysaccharide fractions were isolated: water-soluble polysaccharides (WSPP), pectin substances (PV), hemicellulose A and hemicellulose B (HCA and HCB). In the course of the research, the physicochemical properties of the isolated fractions (description, solubility, chemical properties) were established and their quantitative content was determined (VRPS = 23.3%;
PV = 13.5%; HCA = 16.4%; HCB = 17.0 %). Water-soluble polysaccharides are the dominant fraction in the raw
material of gynostemma pentafil
