Abstract

Abstract A simple glucan has the repeating unit structure ##STR1## and has a mean molecular weight of about two million. It is produced by culturing mycelia of Coriolus Versicolor Iwade FERM-P No. 2743, and subjecting the cultured medium to hot water extraction, ethanol precipitation, aqueous sodium acetate elution and ion exchange.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 64 words
A method of producing a glucan having a basic repeating unit structure ##STR4## and an estimated molecular weight of about two million, comprising culturing mycelia of Coriolus Versicolor Iwade FERM-P No. 2743 in a culture medium for Basidiomycetes, and recovering said glucan from the culture medium by subjecting the culture medium to hot water extraction, ethanol precipitation, aqueous sodium acetate elution and ion exchange.
