Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014221899
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for extracting polysaccharides comprising β-glucan as a main component from a mushroom with high yield and excellent efficiency.SOLUTION: In a method for extracting polysaccharides comprising β-glucan as a main component, a mushroom is treated with water having a temperature within the range of about 140-180°C under a pressure within a range of about 2-3 MPa. The mushroom is preferably maitake mushroom. The mushroom to be used is preferably used after being pretreated with a solvent.
