Food and Beverages
The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a Beta-glucan manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Beta-glucan production, including the cost of Beta-glucan production, Beta-glucan plant cost, Beta-glucan production costs, and the overall Beta-glucan manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Beta-glucan production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.
Beta-glucan is a polysaccharide composed of D-glucose monomers found in the cell walls of cereals, bacteria, fungi, and yeasts. It is used in the food and beverage industry as a stabilizing, thickening, and emulsifying agent in foods like soups, sauces, and beverages. Beta-glucan is used as an alternative for oils in mayonnaise, improving storage stability and reducing overall calories. It tends to reduce shrinkage in meat products due to its water retention quality. Beta-glucan is added to animal feed as it has immunostimulant effects.
Its anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties are utilized in the manufacturing of cosmetics. Beta-glucan may have possible applications in pharmaceutical and biomedical fields for having potential anticancer and immunomodulating effects. It can be used in the future as an adjuvant in vaccines, skin health maintenance, wound healing, and tissue engineering. Beta-glucan can also be potentially used as heavy metal adsorbents in oriental medicine production.
The major factor driving the procurement of beta-glucan is the growing demand across various industries. Beta-glucan is widely used as a stabilizing, thickening, and emulsifying agent in the food and beverage industry, thus raising its demand. Beta-glucan is used in animal feed due to its immunostimulant effects and its use in cosmetics for its moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties.
Its potential pharmaceutical and biomedical applications due to its anticancer and immunomodulating effects may lead to its increased procurement in the future. Moreover, its use as a heavy metal adsorbent in oriental medicine production is another factor that could contribute to the growing demand. The developments in its demand in the food and beverage industry, livestock feed industry, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, along with its production prices, market prices, and logistics, directly influence industrial Beta-glucan procurement in the market globally.
Raw Material for Beta-glucan Production
According to the Beta-glucan manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Beta-glucan include non-pathogenic bacteria or fungi (like Lasiodiplodia theobromae CCT 3966)-carbon source (sugarcane bagasse cellulosic hydrolysate)- nitrogen sources (rice bran extract or soybean bran extract).
Manufacturing Process of Beta-glucan
The extensive Beta-glucan production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:
- From Bacteria or Fungi, Carbon source and nitrogen source: The industrial manufacturing of beta-glucan involves several steps. First, microbial fermentation using bacteria or fungi is done in a medium containing the carbon source (sugarcane bagasse cellulosic hydrolysate) and the nitrogen source (rice bran extract or soybean bran extract). The fermentation process is optimized for maximum yield of beta-glucan. Beta-glucan is then recovered from the culture broth using centrifugation, filtration, and washing. According to requirement Beta-glucan can be further purified by alkaline treatment. Finally, it is thoroughly characterized to ensure quality and consistency.
Beta-glucan typically forms a linear backbone with 1-3 and 1-4 β-glycosidic bonds. Beta-glucans derived from bacteria are typically insoluble in water. They are made up of D-glucose units linked by β-glycosidic bonds, primarily β-1,3 and β-1,4 linkages, with some beta-glucans also having β-1,6 side-branching that can affect their solubility and biological activities. Its specific glycosidic linkages, molecular weight, monosaccharide compositions, and chain conformation determine their physicochemical and functional properties.
