Fungal polysaccharides

2020
Fungal bioactive polysaccharides are well known and have been widely used in Asia as a part of the traditional diet and medicine. In fact, some biopolymers (mainly β-glucans or glycoconjugate) have already made their way to the market as antitumor or immunostimulating drugs.

Fungal polysaccharides

Medical Mycology, 1994
Fungal polysaccharides are cell wall components which may act as antigens or as structural substrates. As antigens, the role of mannans in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans, and of glycoproteins in Aspergillus fumigatus are discussed. Analyses on beta-glucan synthetase in Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and the inhibitory effect of Hansenula ...

The Pneumococcal Polysaccharides

1964
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on pneumococcal polysaccharides. The pneumococci are ovoid, nonmotile, nonsporing organisms that usually occur in pairs enveloped by a capsule. The capsule is the most striking morphologic feature of the organism and is most voluminous when the organism is at its most virulent stage.

Polysaccharides, Modified Polysaccharides and Polysaccharide Blends for Biodegradable Materials

1990
Bacterial and fungal polysaccharides were explored as biodegradable materials. Chemical modification of these polymers were studied in an effort to enhance certain mechanical properties such as tensile strength and to reduce water solubility. Reactions studied included crosslinking and specific substitutions to functionalize the polymer chains. Polymer
