Antifungal and Aflatoxin-Reducing Activity of β-Glucan Isolated from <i>Pichia norvegensis</i> Grown on Tofu Wastewater

Yeast can be isolated from tofu wastewater and the cell wall in the form of β-glucan can act as a natural decontaminant agent. This study aimed to isolate and characterize native yeast from tofu wastewater, which can be extracted to obtain β-glucan and then identify the yeast and its β-glucan activi...
