tritiated glycans ( amylose , dextran , laminaran , the insoluble beta-1,3-d-glucan , and agarose ) and the p-nitrophenyl-glycopyranoside derivatives were used as substrates to investigate whether the macrophages contained or released glucanases capable of degrading alpha-1,4-d-glucans , alpha-1-6-d-glucans , beta-1,3-d-glucans , and agarose respectively .
