#$%^&*AU2018203444A120180607.pdf#####ABSTRACT This disclosure describes, in one aspect, a method for identifying p-glucan binding to immune cells of a subject. Generally, the method includes obtaining a blood sample from the subject, the blood sample comprising immune cells, adding soluble f3-glucan to at least a portion of the blood sample and incubating the mixture under conditions allowing the soluble p-glucan to bind to the immune cells, and detecting soluble p-glucan bound to the immune cells. In another aspect, this disclosure describes a method that generally includes identifying the subject as a low binder of p-glucan, and co-administering to the subject a soluble pglucan and an antibody preparation capable of converting the subject from a low binder to a high binder.
