Nova Vitae Beta glucan strongBeta-glucans are a type of complex carbohydrates (polysaccharides) found in the cell walls of bacteria, fungi, yeasts, algae, and some grains, such as oats and barley. They have various biological functions and are best known for their immunomodulatory properties, meaning they can influence the immune system.
Beta-glucans can be classified in various ways, but they are usually categorized based on their structure. There are different types of beta-glucans, including beta-1,3/1,4-glucans and beta-1,6-glucans. The structure of beta-glucans determines their biological activity and effects in the body.
Beta-glucans can be naturally extracted from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a common yeast species used in various applications, including the production of bread, beer, and wine. The process of extracting beta-glucans from Saccharomyces cerevisiae includes the following:
Cultivation of the yeast: Saccharomyces cerevisiae is cultivated in a suitable nutrient solution or growth medium, where the yeast multiplies and thrives.
Harvesting the yeast: Once the yeast has grown to a certain density, it is harvested. This can be done by centrifuging or filtering the culture to separate the yeast cells from the growth medium.
Cell wall separation: After harvesting, the yeast cells undergo several steps to isolate the cell walls. This usually involves removing the internal cell contents, such as proteins and nucleic acids, while retaining the cell walls, which are rich in beta-glucans.
Processing: The isolated yeast cell walls are further processed and purified to extract and purify the beta-glucans.
Drying and grinding: The purified beta-glucans are dried and then ground into a fine powder. This powder can be used as an ingredient in dietary supplements, food products, or other applications.
