SBG is produced by a proprietary and patented method in compliance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) in Biotec BetaGlucans’ production unit in Tromsø, Norway.
Serendipity can be said to be at play when researchers, looking for a solution to a problem,
Test the theory/hypothesis that beta-glucans strengthened the natural immune system.
The shape of the SBG molecule found in Woulgan, lets it connect efficiently to the macrophages’ receptors.
The "father of natural immunity", credited for discovery of phagocytes in 1882, the major defence mechanism in innate immunity.
Metchinkoff and Ehrlich got the Nobel Prize for their work on immunity. The work is the foundation of the science of immunology.
Purified soluble beta-glucan from yeast is shown to bind to receptors on macrophages and activate the innate immune system.
