ADEKA Beta-Glucan LQ-S(β-Glucan from Aureobasidium pullulans

β-Glucan widely exist in nature as an important component to protect the cell wall of organisms and to maintain vital activities. Especially, baker's yeast and black yeast (Aureobasidium pullulans) have been known as microbes to produce β-Glucan in large amounts, and used as sources of β-Glucan for health food and cosmetics uses.
However, β-Glucan has weaknesses, such as insufficient water solubility and unique flavor and coloring; therefore, it is not suitable for direct ingestion and addition to food and cosmetics.
Our β-Glucan produced by black yeast, overcame such weaknesses and has high water solubility, almost no taste and odor, and good transparency. This product is reliable product because it is made from food materials and produced through processing method appropriate for food production.

ADEKA MEVALONOLACTONE

Mevalonolactone is a dehydrated substance of mevalonic acid and turns into mevalonic acid in water. Mevalonic acid is an important substance widely distributing in nature and converted, within living organism, to the various substances called steroids and isoprenoids such as vitamin K, CoQ10 (ubiquinone), cholesterols, squalenes, etc. indispensable for life activities.
Though existing widely in living organism like animals, plants and microorganisms, mevalonic acid could not be utilized as commercial products due to the availability in slight quantities. We succeeded in high volume production of mevalonic acid for the first time in the world by microorganism culturing and put to market by the name of “Mevalonolactone”.
