The total dietary fibre recovered from the partially hydrolysed galactomannan (PHGM) was 78.27%. The molar mass of PHGM and the absolute viscosity of aqueous solutions were reduced in relation to the intact galactomannan. Nevertheless, their structural characteristics were very similar when evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and also by 1 H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance. A lack of growth promotion in the food-grade strains tested using PHGM during a preliminary in vitro fermentation assay suggests that the metabolism of these microorganisms most likely would not affect the galactomannan content in products during their production and storage. PHGM presented suitable properties to be added as an alternative dietary fibre source in a wide range of food products, particularly in beverages.  aCaesalpinia pulcherrima  aEnzymatic hydrolysis  aGalactomannans  aGalactose  aGoma  aPolissacarídeo  aViscosidade  aAbsolute viscosity  aDietary fibre  aEnzima hidrolizada  aFibra dietética  aFlamboyanzinho  aGalactomanano  aGuar substitute  aGum1 aSANTOS, K.
