【 摘 要 】

This article gives an overview of exopolysaccharides produced by fungi. The structural characterization of b-D-(1®3) and b-D-(1®3, 1®6)- glucans is discussed focusing on different chemical and physical procedures. The industrial applications are also considered mainly from the point of view of human health.
