Production of ?-glucan and related glucan-hydrolases by Botryosphaeria rhodina [PDF]
Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2007 Characterization of beta-glucan production from Botryosphaeria rhodina DABAC-P82 by detecting simultaneously glucan-hydrolytic enzymes and their localization, culture medium rheology and oxygen transfer.Mycelium growth, beta-glucan production, substrate consumption and glucan-hydrolytic enzymes were monitored both in shaken flasks and in a 3-l stirred ...

Helminthologia, 2018 Summary Immunosuppression caused by parasitic infections represents the foremost way by which the parasites overcome or escape the host’s immune response. Glucan is a well-established natural immunomodulator with the ability to significantly improve immune system, from innate immunity to both branches of specific immunity.

Conformational studies of β‐glucans [PDF]
Biopolymers, 1971 AbstractSteric and energy contour diagrams have been plotted for disaccharide‐like and for helical structures of linear β‐D‐glucans having (1 → 2), (1 → 3) and (1 → 4) linkages. The allowed conformations constitute only about. 4% of the total conformations, indicating that the freedom of rotation of glucose residues is highly restricted in all the ...
