Extracting (1,3/1,6)-β-Glucans from Saccharomyces cerevisiae: A Fungal Immunotherapeutic

The goal of this research was the development of a method to extract pure (1,3/1,6)-β-glucans from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These β-glucans are of pharmaceutical importance because an animal’s immune system can recognize glucan molecules, and these molecules can act as immunomodulators, essentially...
