OPTIMISATION OF THE EXTRACTION PROCESS AND PARTIAL CHARACTERIZATION OF Β-GLUCAN FROM THE MARINE YEAST DEBARYOMYCES HANSENII.
Main Article Content
Abstract
The cell walls of fungi are made with structural polysaccharides as well as glycoproteins. They are the main source of various glucans. Debaryomyces hansenii yeast cells (15% W/V) was used as the source of β- glucan extraction. 1M NaOH (sodium Hydroxide) / 1M HCl , 1 M NaOH / 1M CH3COOH , 1 M NaOH / 1M H3PO4 combinations were used for optimization of the extraction procedure. Maximum yield of β-glucan from D. hansenii was obtained with a combination of 1M NaoH / 1M H3PO4 extraction method. FT-IR analysis of the extracted β-glucan identified the signature peeks of bonds (1,3) and (1,6)-β-D-glucan linkages.
