Abstract
The search for methods demonstrating the preservation of the structure of β-glucans after their isolation is an urgent practical problem. The aim of the study was to evaluate the characteristics of β-glucans from the fruit bodies of Pleurotus ostreatus and the mycelium Phallus impudicus using IR spectroscopy. During the research, samples containing soluble and insoluble fractions of β-glucans were obtained. The content of β-glucans in the samples was determined using an enzymatic method. The presence of α- and β-glycosidic bonds was determined using IR spectroscopy. It has been shown that the IR spectroscopy method is a promising tool for the structural analysis of polysaccharides, due to the possibility of recording the glycosidic bonds of α- and β-glucans. This method can be recommended for the identification and standardization of fungal polysaccharides obtained from the mycelium and fruiting bodies of basidiomycetes.
