Antioxidant and antitumor activities of β-glucan-rich exopolysaccharides with different molecular weight from Paenibacillus polymyxa JB115
β-Glucan isolated from cell wall of fungi not only has low purity and yield, but also causes adverse effects. Consequently, extracellular β-glucan produced by microorganisms is the focus of this study. β-Gluca...

Physiological activities of a β-glucan produced by Panebacillus polymyxa
In vitro bioactivities of a β-glucan produced by Panebacillus polymyxa JB115 were investigated. Nitric oxide production by RAW 264.7 macrophage cells pre-treated with β-glucan JB115 (from 0.1 to 1 mg ml−1) was si...

Production and physicochemical characterization of β-glucan produced byPaenibacillus polymyxa JB115
This study was conducted to develop a bacterial glucan as an animal feed additive. A novel glucan-producing bacterium.Paenibacillus polymyxa JB115, was isolated from Korean soil. The glucan, JB115-BG, produced by
