In this book, the applications, properties, analytical tools, production and genes of four main cyclic β-glucans from microorganisms are highlighted and critically evaluated. As biocompatible and biodegradable renewable resources, they have an immense potential for future applications, which has not yet been fully exploited. This concise review will help to bridge this gap.SpringerBriefs in Microbiology,2191-5385BiochemistryBiodegradationBiochemistry.Biodegradation.572.566Venkatachalam Geetha1064985Gummadi Sathyanarayana1758735Doble Mukesh627373MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437844703321Cyclic beta-glucans from microorganisms4196987UNINA
