RESEARCH ON OBTAINING HIGH Β-GLUCANS CONTENT FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES OF YEAST BY HARNESSING THEIR BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE POTENTIAL

Isolated polysaccharides from different natural sources have gained a real interest from the scientific community due to biologically active effects on body functions such as: lipid metabolism correction, immune stimulating, glycemic control in type II diabetes, antitumor activity, etc. A category o...
