(1,3) -β-D-Glucan ni kimwe mu bigize urukuta rw'utugingo ngengabuzima twinshi.Abahanga mu bya siyansi bakora iperereza ku bishoboka ko BG isuzuma n’uruhare rwayo mu gusuzuma hakiri kare ubwoko butandukanye bw’indwara ziterwa na fungal (IFI) zikunze kugaragara mu kigo cyita ku barwayi ba kaminuza.Urwego rwa BG rw’abarwayi 28 basuzumwe na IFI esheshatu [13 zishobora gutera aspergillose (IA), 2 zagaragaye IA, 2 zygomycose, 3 fusariose, 3 cryptococcose, 3 candidaemia na 2 pneumocystose] basuzumwe nyuma.Itandukaniro rya kinetic murwego rwa serumu ya BG kuva kubarwayi 15 basuzumwe na IA bagereranije nizo antigen ya galactomannan (GM).Mu manza 5⁄15 za IA, BG yari nziza mbere ya GM (igihe cyashize kuva ku minsi 4 kugeza 30), mu manza 8⁄15, BG yari nziza icyarimwe na GM kandi, mu manza 2-15, BG yari nziza nyuma ya GM.Ku zindi ndwara eshanu zifata ibihumyo, BG yari nziza cyane mugihe cyo kwisuzumisha usibye indwara ebyiri za zygomycose na imwe muri eshatu zanduye fusariose.Ubu bushakashatsi, bugaragaza ibikorwa rusange by’ikigo cyita ku barwayi bo mu rwego rwa gatatu, bwemeza ko gutahura BG bishobora gushimishwa no gusuzuma IFI ku barwayi bafite indwara ziterwa na haematologiya.
