TL;DR: It appears that trehalose is the major form by which carbohydrate is translocated in Serpula lacrimans mycelial regions.
Abstract: Trehalose and arabitol are the most abundant carbohydrates in mycelium of Serpula lacrimans growing over Perspex. Trehalose is the major soluble carbohydrate in strands while arabitol reaches high levels in more marginal regions. Uptake of [14C]glucose results in the bulk of label being found in trehalose in all mycelial regions. It appears that trehalose is the major form by which carbohydrate is translocated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided the titled composition containing interferon as active component and a specific sugar alcohol as stabilizing agent, which can be administered in the oral cavity, to the skin, or in the rectum, vagina, urethra, eye, ear, or nose, etc.
Abstract: PURPOSE: To provide the titled composition containing interferon as active component and a specific sugar alcohol as stabilizing agent. CONSTITUTION: The objective composition containing stably compounded interferon is prepared by compounding ≥1×10 4 IU of interferon (having a titer of ≥1×10 5 IU/mg-protein) per 100g of the composition and ≥15wt%, preferably ≥35wt% stabilizer comprising ≥3-hydric sugar alcohol (e.g. glycerin, erythritol, arabitol, etc.) based on the whole composition. The stability of interferon can be further improved by adding an acidic sugar, an organic acid buffering agent, a sulfur-containing mild reducing agent having sulfuhydryl selectivity, a human serum albumin, etc. to the composition. It can be administered in the oral cavity, to the skin, or in the rectum, vagina, urethra, eye, ear, or nose, etc. COPYRIGHT: (C)1983,JPO&Japio
