Bioactivity | Pullulan (Pullulan standard 5800) (Mw 362-480 kDa; Mn 100-200 kDa) is a class of orally active and water-soluble linear glucosic polysaccharide. Pullulan can be isolated from the polymorphic fungus Aureobasidium pullulans. Pullulan is composed of maltotriose repeating units linked by α-1,6 linkages and is an amorphous slime matter. Pullulan is widely used in food, environment, pharmaceutical, manufacturing, and electronics[1][2][3][4]. | ||||||||||||
In Vivo | Pullulan (1、5 和 10 % 分散在饲料中;口服;62 周) 在 SD 大鼠中,对存活率、体重无显著影响,没有显示出慢性毒性[4]。 MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. | ||||||||||||
