Generally speaking, β-(1,3)-glucan is much more irritating to macrophages than other types of glucans.
The β-glucan used in various cosmetics is mainly derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is insoluble in water or has been chemically modified such as carboxymethylation and phosphating to achieve water solubility. In contrast, SC GLUCAN is naturally water-soluble, so it is more suitable for use in cosmetics.
