Algalif, a leading Icelandic biotechnology company specializing in the sustainable production of natural, health-promoting ingredients.
β‑Glucan research began in the mid 20th century with the discovery of immune-stimulating properties in yeast cell wall extracts, evolving over decades into a robust field distinguishing fungal and yeast β‑1,3/1,6-glucans, known for their immunomodulatory effects, from cereal β‑glucans, valued for their metabolic benefits.
This breakthrough sparked decades of scientific exploration into extraction, purification, and efficacy, ultimately revealing that the same molecule offers remarkable immune benefits for humans.
