Abstract
⺠Mushroom β-1,3-1,6-glucans were determined with a new colorimetric method. ⺠The dye Congo red interacts with the triple helix of the glucans. ⺠The total- β-1,3-glucan content in mycelia and fruiting bodies was measured. ⺠Fruiting bodies have higher amounts of β-1,3-1,6-glucans and total-β-1,3-glucans.
