Yeast Beta Glucan

Yeast beta glucan is a functional polysaccharide derived from the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with 1,3-D-glucan as the main chain and 1,6-D-glucan as the branch chain. The chemical name for ‘yeast beta glucans’ is (1-3),(1-6)-β-D-glucans. Yeast beta glucan has strong immune-enhancing activity, regulating blood lipid, and blood sugar, anti-radiation, repairing cells, improving intestinal function and other functions. In 2011, the European Union approved yeast beta glucan to be marketed as a novel food ingredient. This novel food is available both in an insoluble and soluble form. It can be widely used in food, health care, cosmetics, animal nutrition, and other fields.

 

Yeast beta glucan is a polysaccharide present in the yeast cell wall that has immune enhancing activity. Made through cell wall breaking, enzymatic hydrolysis, acid and alkali treatment, separation and purification, drying and other processes. Widely used as an immune supplement in food, healthcare, and skincare products

What Is Yeast Beta Glucan?

Yeast beta glucan is a polysaccharide present in the yeast cell wall that has immune enhancing activity. Made through cell wall breaking, enzymatic hydrolysis, acid and alkali treatment, separation and purification, drying and other processes.

Yeast beta Glucan is derived from β- (1,3) - D-glucan as the main chain, containing a small amount β- 1,6-glucan branching is a polysaccharide with a three-dimensional helical structure.
 

Glucan is widely present in various fungi and plants, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, shiitake mushrooms, Ganoderma lucidum, and oats, and they are the main functional substances. Due to different sources and configurations, the activity of pectin varies greatly.
The yeast beta glucan produced by our company is extracted from the yeast cell wall. Research has shown that only the glucan present in Ganoderma spores and yeast cell walls has good immune activity, known as beta- 1,3-1,6 glucan.

What Is Yeast Beta-Glucan Good For?

Yeast Beta Glucan Characters

Tessin yeast beta glucan is refined and processed from saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall. The structure of β-1,3-1,6 glucan is complete and the excess impurities in cells are removed at the same time. Make it safer and safer in products.

1. Improve immunity

Yeast beta glucan can specifically combine with macrophages to stimulate and activate immune factors, so as to better exclude foreign cells, prevent the invasion of foreign viruses, and achieve immune effects.

2. Anti-radiation

Yeast beta glucan can enhance the production of blood cells, including granulocytes, monocytes, and organ tissue cells, so as to recover body cells damaged by lethal doses of radiation.

3. Anti-aging/After-sun repair

Yeast beta glucan can activate Langerhans cells, thereby promoting the proliferation of skin cells and the synthesis of skin tissue matrix, playing the role of anti-aging and post-sun repair.

4. Moisturizing

Yeast beta glucan has a good film-forming property, which can form a transparent, elastic, and breathable film on the skin to prevent water loss and highly moisturize.

5. As Emulsion Stabilizer

Yeast beta-glucan is a good emulsion stabilizer, which can be added to beverages not only as a functional ingredient but also as an emulsion stabilizer.

Yeast Beta Glucan Mechanism of Action

The unique triple helix molecular structure of yeast beta glucan is not hydrolyzed into monosaccharides such as glucose in the intestine, but rather binds to specific receptors, passes through the intestinal epithelium through endocytosis (or phagocytosis), enters the lymphatic system, and enters the bloodstream from the lymphatic system to exert its effects.Thus activating macrophages, neutrophils, etc. Increase the levels of white blood cell cytokines, cytokinins, and specific antibodies. It comprehensively stimulates the body's immune system and has a very good recovery effect on damaged cells. So, the body is more prepared to resist microbial induced lesions.
Beta glucan can quickly restore the ability of injured lymphocytes to produce cytokines (IL-1) to normal, thereby effectively regulating the body's immune function.

Numerous experiments have shown that, β- Dextran can promote the production of IgM antibodies in the body, thereby enhancing the immune function of bodily fluids. This type of glucan activated cells will trigger non-specific defense mechanisms in the host. Therefore, its application in various pathological changes, infectious diseases, and trauma has attracted great attention.

Yeast Beta Glucan FAQ

  • Q What is Yeast Beta Glucan?

    A
    Beta glucans are complex, high molecular mass (100-200 kDa) polysaccharides, found in the cell wall of many yeasts and cereals. The chemical name for ‘yeast beta glucans’ is (1-3),(1-6)-β-D-glucans.
    This novel food is available both in an insoluble and soluble form, isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
  • Q What physiological functions does yeast beta glucan have and how does it work?

    A Yeast beta-glucan is a good biological effect regulator (BRMs). A large number of animal and clinical trials have proved that yeast beta glucan has physiological functions such as enhancing immunity, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-radiation, reducing blood lipids, and promoting wound healing. After being taken orally, yeast beta glucan enters the blood circulation through the intestinal lymphatic system. The surface of human macrophages (a non-specific immune cell that can quickly remove foreign antigens from the body) has specific yeast beta glucan receptors. After recognizing yeast beta glucan, it can quickly activate the activity of macrophages, and achieve the functions of rapidly enhancing immunity, anti-tumor, anti-radiation, anti-inflammatory, etc.
  • Q What are the application fields of yeast beta glucan?

    A

    Yeast beta glucan can be used as a food ingredient in dairy products, meat products, baked foods, beverages, candy, and other common foods. It can also be used as a health food raw material to develop into a functional health food. In common foods, yeast beta glucan has the functions of thickening, moisturizing and improving taste due to its water-holding capacity. As yeast beta glucan has the function of anti-radiation and quick wound repair, it can also be used in cosmetics as an ingredient of facial masks, shower gels, hand cream, and other cosmetics, with whitening, quick repair of skin cells, moisturizing and other functions.

  • Q What types of health care products can yeast beta glucan be developed into, and how much is appropriate to take every day?

    A Yeast beta glucan can be developed into capsules, oral liquids, tablets, and other healthy food. The daily intake of 200mg yeast glucan per person can play a role in rapidly enhancing immunity, anti-radiation, reducing blood lipids and so on.
  • Q Briefly introduce the basic production process of yeast beta glucan?

    A It is refined after removing protein, fat, nucleic acid and other impurities in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by biotechnology
  • Q Which people are suitable for taking yeast beta glucan?

    A Yeast beta glucan is suitable for middle-aged and elderly people with low immunity, patients with dyslipidemia, patients with frequent colds, tumor patients, and patients with tumor radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
