General description

Mannan from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a simple polysaccharide.

Application

Mannan from Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been used in a study to prepare mannan-protein conjugates using high-temperature glycation. It has also been used in a study to investigate the antioxidative and antimutagenic activity of yeast cell wall mannans in vitro.

Preparation Note

Prepared by the cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (cetavlon) extraction method.
