Synopsis

Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 2

Aureobasidium pullulans is a yeast-like fungus widely used in biotechnology, primarily for its ability to produce the exopolysaccharide pullulan. In terms of infection support or treatment, the justification for its use is based on some scientific evidence, although this evidence is still emerging and not yet robust. Several strains of A. pullulans have been studied for their potential as biocontrol agents in agriculture, effectively inhibiting plant pathogens due to their production of antimicrobial compounds and their ability to outcompete harmful microbes. In the context of human health, recent studies have focused on specific strains such as Aureobasidium pullulans N-163 and AFO-202, which have been shown to produce beta-glucans that may modulate the immune system and exhibit some antibacterial and antiviral activities in vitro and in animal models. However, direct clinical evidence in humans for infection treatment or prevention is limited. Most research remains preclinical, involving cell culture or animal studies demonstrating immunomodulatory or mild antimicrobial effects. There is currently no substantial clinical trial data to support its routine use for treating infections in humans. Therefore, while the use of A. pullulans for infection is scientifically investigated, the overall level of evidence is low, and its application as an infection treatment in humans should be regarded as experimental.
