Yeast beta glucan is a polysaccharide extracted from Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell walls via alkaline or enzymatic hydrolysis. Its core structure consists of D-glucose units linked by (1→3)-β-glycosidic bonds with (1→6) branches. The molecular formula is typically represented as (C₆H₁₀O₅)ₙ, with CAS No. 9039-39-2.
Storage requires cool, dry conditions below 25°C to prevent microbial growth. High-dose intake may interact with immunosuppressants; clinical use requires physician supervision. Avoid inhalation of fine dust during handling to prevent respiratory irritation.
