Aspergillus vesicolor mycelial cells were covalently immobilized on a glutaraldehyde‐ε‐amino‐caproyl‐NH 2 ‐Separon, and the constitutively‐produced β‐glucanase system and some properties of purified β‐1,3‐glucanase were compared with those of freely suspended cells. It was found that the mycelial immobilization modulates the composition of the β‐glucanase system as well as stimulates the export of a functionally different β‐1,3‐glucanase.
