Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Beta-glucan having improved properties is provided. This beta -glucan preparation possesses a significantly higher molecular weight and viscosity than beta -glucans prepared by standard means. These properties enable the beta -glucan to be better resistant to enzymatic degradation, to exhibit a longer residence time in the gastrointestinal tract, and to extend the shelf life of food products to which it is added. La présente invention concerne une bêta-glucane présentant des propriétés améliorées. Cette préparation de beta -glucane traite un poids moléculaire et une viscosité sensiblement plus élevés que dans la beta -glucane préparée par un moyen standard. Ces propriétés rendent la beta -glucane plus résistante à une dégradation enzymatique, permettent un temps de séjour plus long dans les voies gastro-intestinales et étendent la durée de vie des produits alimentaires auxquels on ajoute la beta -glucane.
