Mannan（Cat No.:I041464）is a type of polysaccharide composed of mannose, a monosaccharide sugar, linked by β-1,4 and occasionally β-1,6 glycosidic bonds. It is found in the cell walls of various plants, fungi, and yeasts, where it serves as an energy reserve. Mannan is commonly used in food and pharmaceutical industries as a gelling agent, thickener, and stabilizer. It is also explored for its potential health benefits, including its role in immune modulation and prebiotic effects. Additionally, mannan derivatives, like galactomannan, are valuable in biotechnology and biomedicine for various applications.
