Both molecules are essentially 1,3-linked though Pachyman may have a small amount of 1,6-linked glucose.
Pachyman has a lower molecular weight than Curdlan and is from a fungal source (Poria). Curdlan is derived from bacteria (exo-polysaccharide).
What is the difference between Pachyman (P-PACHY) and Curdlan (P-CURDL)?
