The fractions obtained from the mycelia and their culture broth of Agrocybe cylindracea and Phellinus igniarius were tested for the antioxidation activities. In electron donating ability test, strong activities more than 70% were observed in ethyl acetate and butanol fractions of A. cylindracea mycelium, butanol fraction of A. cylindracea culture broth, diethyl ether fraction of P. igniarius mycelium, and diethyl ether and ethyl acetate fractions of P. igniarius culture broth. Lipid peroxidation inhibition was observed in diethyl ether, butanol and water fractions of A. cylindracea mycelium, and water fraction of A. cylindracea induced the decrease in uric acid production. Activities of $50{\sim}60\;%$ of nitrite scavenging ability were observed in diethyl ether fraction of A. cylindracea mycelium, ethyl acetate and water fractions of A. cylindracea culture broth, diethyl ether fraction of P. igniarius mycelium, and diethyl ether, chloroform, butanol and water fractions of P. igniarius culture broth. In melanin biosynthesis inhibition activity measurement, water fraction of A. cylindracea mycelium and butanol fraction of P. igniarius mycelium showed twice higher activities than control. From these results, the fungi of P. igniarius and A. cylindracea had strong antioxidant activities.

This study was carried out to investigate the whitening effect of mycelial culture broth of P. japonica in the mixture of cucumber and grape extracts. In the inhibition test of melanin biosynthesis of melanoma cell, B16BL6, the culture broth of P. japonica more then $50\;{\mu}l/ml$ (5%) concentration inhibited the melanin biosynthesis of the cell entirely without cytotoxicity. More then 10 days incubation of P. japonica in the mixture was required to have the inhibition activity. In vitro inhibition test of melanin biosynthesis of the culture broth of P. japonica was investigated in the concentration dependent manner of 10% to 50%. 30% concentration of the culture broth inhibited completely tyrosinase activity. In the cytotoxicity test, cucumber and grape extract itself has a strong cytotoxicity to the melanoma cell, B16Bl6. The value of $IC_{50}$ of the cucumber and grape extracts against the melanoma cells was 5% concentration. However, the culture broth of P. japonica incubated in the cucumber and grape extracts did not show the cytotoxcity up to 20% against melanoma cell, B16BL6. Therefore, we concluded that the culture broth of P. japonica in the mixture of cucumber and grape extracts can be used as a whitening cosmetic resource.

In this study, we have investigated the antibacterial, antioxidant, and antitumor activities of mycelium cultural extract from mushroom. Mushroom mycelium was grown in a synthetic liquid media such as PD broth, YM broth or citrus extracts. In antibacterial activity test, the best result was achieved when mycelium cultural extracts from Phellinus linteus and Coriolus versicolor were incubated together on YM broth. On the other hand, mushroom mycelium cultured on citrus extracts showed better activity than that on PD broth. We have also tested the antioxidant activity at concentration up to 10 mg of mycelium cultural extract/mL. The more it is in higher concentration, the more the activity increases. The higher antioxidant activity was observed both on PD broth containing the Phellinus linteus and Coriolus versicolor mycelium and citrus extract containing the same. The complex culture extracts obtained from the synthetic medium and citrus extract medium showed 10-89% of the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenger activity. The antitumor activity of mycelium cultural extract was examined by using MTT assay on A549 cells. Mushroom mycelium cultured on citrus extracts showed interestingly higher antitumor activity than that on synthetic liquid media.

This study was carried out to investigate the growth inhibition of Propionibacterium acnes by mycelial culture broth of Paecilomyces japonica in the Mulberry leaf extract. The growth inhibition effect of P. japonica mycelial culture broth against P. acnes in various concentration of Mulberry leaf extract was the most effective in 3% Mulberry leaf extract. The inhibition effect of P. japonica mycelial culture broth against P. acnes according to the culture time was the moust effective after 25 days mycelial cultivation. As the treating amount of the mycelial culture broth was increased, the growth inhibition effect against P. acnes was increased gradually. The growth inhibition effect of mycelial culture broth against P. acnes according to the time of heat treatment was active by 45min at $100^{\circ}C$, while it was inactive more than 60min at $100^{\circ}C$. This result suggested that the antibacterial materials are possible to be glycoside or peptides. Taken together P. japonica mycelial culture in the Mulbarry leaf extract has a possibility to be an element of skin-care cosmetics regulating the acnes.

Sprassis crispa was cultivated using soybean curd whey, and its antimicrobial activities were examined against those of eight microorganisms that were foodborne pathogens or food-poisoning bacteria. The culture broth of soybean curd whey was superior in mycelium content (17.76 g/L) to that of the defined culture broth, and the ${\beta}$-glucan content was about 10.64 percent (w/w). The antimicrobial activities of the culture broth were confirmed against those of B. cereus, St. aureus, L. monocytogenes and S. typhimurium using the paper disk method. The antimicrobial activity was also maintained after the heat treatment and alcalase treatment. The filtrate with less than 3 kDa M.W. also showed the antimicrobial activity against four strains: B. cereus, St. aureus, L. monocytogenes and S. typhimurium. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was about 1.26 mg/mL in the B. cereus and 12.6 mg/mL in the St. aureus and L. monocytogenes. The S. typhimurium showed a MIC of 62.8 mg/mL. Thus, the culture of Sparassis crispa using soybean curd whey provides a thermally stable antimicrobial agent that can be used as a natural preservative in the biofood industry.

The possibility of usage as cosmetic resource of the mycelial culture broth of P. japonica in the mixture of cucumber and grape extracts was investigated. In the effect of collagen synthesis promotion in human fibroblast cells, the culture broth of P. japonica of 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0% concentration increased the amount of collagen synthesis than that of control cells. The culture broth increased the SOD activity in the concentration dependant manner of 0.01% to 1.0% in the antioxydation activity test. About 90% of superoxide radical was eliminated by 0.5% concentration of the culture supernatant in the antioxydation test. Anticoagulant quercetin in the course of mycelial growth in the mixture of cucumber and grape extract was accumulated to 15 folds than that of pre-culture. In the skin safety test of the culture broth, there is no any skin damage signal in the tested 30 people. Taken together, we concluded that the culture broth of P. japonica in the mixture of grape and cucumber extracts can be used as a cosmetic resource.
