【 摘 要 】

This article givesan overview of exopolysaccharides produced by fungi. The structural characterizationof b-D-(1®3) and b-D-(1®3,1®6)- glucans is discussed focusing on differentchemical and physical procedures. The industrial applications are also consideredmainly from the point of view of human health.
