Sources |
Cell walls of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) |
| Specification | Beta 1,3/1, 6 ;D Glucan 20%, 50%, 70%, 80%, 85% |
Beta Glucan is the polysaccharid composed by glucose, they are combined through β-1,3 mostly, which is the connection form of glucose chain. It can activate the macrophage and neutrophil leucocyte etc, so that increase the content of leucocyte, cytokinin and special antibody, excite the immune system of human body. And the body can have better preparations for resist the disease caused by microbial.
1. Beta Glucan is known as "biological response modifiers" because of their ability to activate the immune system.
2. Beta Glucan can enhance the activity of the immune system.
3. Beta Glucan also reportedly lower elevated levels of LDL cholesterol, aid in wound healing, help prevent infections.
4. Beta Glucan has potential as adjuvant in the treatment of cancer.
Function:
1)beta glucan is a good natural immune enhancer, and can provide the body's non-specific and specific immune function. It is an important way to improve the health status of the animals, and widely applied in the field of animal breeding.
2) beta glucan has a high viscosity, water holding capacity, emulsion stability and other properties. In the food industry, it is often used in sauces, desserts and other foods as a thickener, holding agent and emulsion stabilizer.
3) beta glucan in the food industry is used as a dietary fiber, but also a high quality health food additive.
4) In the field of cosmetics, yeast beta glucan can be applied to shampoo, shower gel, sunscreen and a mask and other products. It plays its anti-infective, anti-radiation, and enhances the immune role to protect the skin from external aggressions.
