Fugal exopolysaccharides, potential applications and future prospective

Exopolysaccharides from fungi [EPSs] have been acknowledged over the past 20 years as high-value macromolecules. These products have a variety of requests in the pharmaceutical, medical, food, and other industries. Apart from anticancer and antiviral potential, they also increase the nutrient content of human food and the aridity of the soil. The general outline of the present study covers the characteristics, purification, and analysis of fungal EPS and the applications thereof in human welfare. It is enough to say that chemicals with the required bioactivity may be produced or extracted from the fungi via genetic, biochemical, and technological manipulation.
