Linear range: 4 to 100 μg of glucose per assay
Total assay time: ~ 100 min
Detection limit: 1 g/100 g
Stability: > 2 years under recommended storage condition
Several acid and enzyme-based methods for the hydrolysis of β-glucan were compared and the best option was the method using H2SO4. For most samples, similar β-glucan values were obtained with both the optimized HCl and H2SO4 procedures. However, in the case of certain samples, specifically Ganoderma lucidum and Poria cocus, the H2SO4 procedure resulted in significantly higher values
