Heat treatment of curdlan enhances enzymatic production of bioactive β-(1,3)-glucan oligosaccharides

Curdlan is a water insoluble linear β-(1,3)-glucan, which is industrially produced from bacterium. This polysaccharide displays irreversible gelation by heating, which has been applied in the food industry as stabilizers and food textures. However, those properties are
