ABSTRACT:
It has been found that alimulus-positive glycolipid is present in xanthan gum derived fromXanthomonas, which has been commercially available and eaten for many years, and this was purified, and it has been found that thislimulus-positive glycolipid has an immunopotentiation effect. A method for safely and inexpensively producing thelimulus-positive glycolipid containing an immunopotentiator at high concentrations is provided. The method for producing thelimulus-positive glycolipid of the present invention comprises extracting thelimulus-positive glycolipid from xanthan gum. Alimulus-positive glycolipid composition containing thelimulus-positive glycolipid can be used for various applications such as pharmaceuticals, pharmaceuticals for animals, quasi drugs, cosmetics, foods, functional foods, feedstuff and bath agents.
