The present invention is a novel glucan that can be produced by glucosyltransferase activity of lactic acid bacteria on sucrose substrates, having an average molecular weight between 10 kDa and 1 GDa, and α (1,3)-and α (1,6) -linked anhydro The present invention relates to glucans consisting essentially of glucose units (AGU) and glucan sucrase capable of producing these glucans from sucrose. This glucan has thickening and corrosion inhibiting properties. This glucan can be chemically modified. |
