Hambag mushroom is edible mushroom, and one of new strains in Grifola frondosa. It was developed from Korean wild Grifola frondosa by National Institute Science & Technology. In this study, we investigated the effects of the powder extracted from fruit-body of hambag mushroom on hyperglycemia, hyperlipemia and pancreatic cells in rats with streptozotocin (STZ) and high fat diet-induced diabetes. The diabetic rats were fed with hambag mushroom-powder (1 and 2% of diet weight) for 6 weeks. And then the levels of blood glucose and lipid and the pancreatic tissue were analyzed and compared. The diabetic rats fed with hambag mushroom-powder lost less body weight than those fed with the powder-free normal diet. flood glucose levels in the diabetic rats fed with hambag mushroom-powder at all concentrations was lower by 50% than in the diabetic rats fed with normal diet. The levels of total cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol in the diabetic rats fed with hambag mushroom-powder were increased compared to those in the diabetic rats fed with normal diet. There were the blood levels of cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol by hambag mushroom-powder concentrations in a dose-dependent response. The decreased damage of pancreatic tissue in the group treated with hambag mushroom-powder could be suggested possibly as one of mechanisms for the effects of hambag mushroom-powder on hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia.

In this study, Sparassis crispa(cauliflower mushroom), which is rich in beta-glucan, was pulverized using ultrafine grinding technology for its potential utilization as a diverse food ingredient. The physical and antioxidant properties of cauliflower mushroom powder were evaluated at various grinding times. The results showed that as the grinding time of cauliflower mushroom increased, the average particle size significantly decreased (p<0.05). Additionally, the water-holding capacity, swelling capacity, and water solubility index of cauliflower mushroom increased significantly(p<0.05). Based on the analysis mentioned above, cauliflower mushroom prepared as a superfine powder for 5 minutes exhibited superior physical and chemical properties as well as antioxidant characteristics and is expected to be widely used in various foods.

This study examined the effects of adding four different amounts (0%: control, 4%: M-4, 8%: M-8, 12%: M-12) of button mushroom (Agaricus bisporous) powder on the quality characteristics of cookies. The bulk density and pH of the dough, and firmness, color, spread factor, consumer acceptability of cookies, and total phenol compound content and free radical scavenging activity of mushroom powder and cookies were measured. While the bulk density and pH of the dough as well as spread factor of the cookies significantly decreased, the firmness, L values and total phenol compound contents and free radical scavenging activity of the cookies significantly increased with increasing mushroom powder content(p<.05). The consumer acceptability scores for the button mushroom cookie groups ranked significantly(p<.05) higher than those of the control group in general acceptability, appearance, flavor, color, taste, and texture. This study suggests that button mushroom powder is a good ingredient for increasing the acceptability and functionality of cookies.

Effects of mushroom powder on physicochemical characteristics of dough and bread-making properties were studied. In mixogram test, addition of 2-10% mushroom powder increased water absorption from 67,0 to 79%. Peak time, peak height, band width, and seven minute height of mushroom-wheat flour composite were similar to those of control. Sedimentation and P.K. values decreased with increasing amount of mushroom powder In amylogram test, no significant difference was observed in gelatinization temperature between control and mushroom powder-added dough. Peak viscosity increased with increasing amount of mushroom powder, Highest loaf volume was attained when 2 and 4% mushroom powders were added, whereas decreased above 6%. Bread weight and L value of crust increased with increasing amount of mushroom powder whereas 'a' value decreased. As the amount of mushroom powder increased, L value of crumb color decreased. No significant difference in springiness and adhesiveness was observed between control and mushroom-wheat composite flour bread whereas chewiness and gumminess, increased with increasing amount of mushroom powder, Hardness generally increased as the amount of mushroom powder increased. Mushroom powder caused bread staling at both storage temperatures ($4^{\circ}C\;and\;25^{\circ}C$). Although sensory value decreased with increasing mushroom powder, use of mushroom powder to replace up to 4% wheat flour is recommended in making bread.

This study was conducted to develop an optimal composite recipe of nutritional cookies containing oak mushroom (Lentinus edodes) powder that has a high preference score. Oak mushroom(Lentinus edodes) is considered a significantly wholesome food. In addition, the dried oak mushroom(Lentinus edodes) has a better flavor and more nutrients than the fresh oak mushroom since vitamins are activated during the drying process. Wheat flour was partially substituted with Lentinus edodes powder to reduce its content. The optimal sensory composite recipe was determined by making iced cookies which have the advantage of long storage, at 3 concentrations of Lentinus edodes powder, yellow sugar and butter, using the central composite design. In addition, the mixing condition of Lentinus edodes powder cookies was optimized by subjecting the cookies to a sensory evaluation and instrumental analysis using the response surface methodology(RSM). The effects of the addition of the three variables on the quality of Lentinus edodes cookies were assessed in terms of texture, color, spread ratio and sensory evaluation. The results of the sensory evaluation produced very significant values for color, appearance, texture, overall quality(p<0.05), flavor(p<0.01) and the results of instrumental analysis showed significant values in lightness(p<0.05), spread ratio, hardness(p<0.01). As a result, the optimal sensory ratio of Lentinus edodes cookies was determined to be Lentinus edodes powder 10.83g, yellow sugar 61.89 g, and butter 120.0 g.

This study was performed to evaluate the effect of mushrooms powder (Lentinus edodes, Ganoderma lucidum, Pleurotus ostreatus; 5:3:2, w/w/w) of on the lipid concentration in female Sprague-Dawley rats for 4 weeks. Experimental groups were divided into two dietary groups, the cholesterol diet (Cholesterol group) and the cholesterol diet supplemented mixed mushrooms powder (Mushroom group). The concentration of total cholesterol in serum was significantly decreased by 57.4% in mushroom group compared to cholesterol group. The concentration of HDL-cholesterol was significantly increased by 230% in mushroom group compared to cholesterol group. At the same time, atherogenic index was also significantly decreased by 68.4% in mushroom group compared to cholesterol group. The concentration of triglyceride in liver was significantly increased by 50% in mushroom group compared to cholesterol group. However, the concentrations of triglyceride and phospholipid in serum and cholesterol and phospholipid in liver had no significant difference both groups. This study suggested that mixed mushroom powders exert a cholesterole-lowering effect in hyperlipidemic female rats.
