品として加工するのに適したものである。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for producing a dry powder of a fruit body of Maitake mushrooms (hereinafter referred to as a fruit body of Maitake). The dried powder of maitake produced by the method of the present invention is particularly suitable for processing as food.

However, it has been confirmed that certain polysaccharides (β-glucan) extracted from Maitake have a medicinal effect such as an anticancer effect. In recent years, research on medicinal use has been actively conducted.

, And drying and sterilization are performed simultaneously. For this reason, among the medicinal components of Maitake, heat-labile components will be lost by this heat treatment. Therefore, it can be said that the above-mentioned anticancer effect is obtained from a heat-stable component among the pharmaceutically active ingredients of Maitake. Not only maitake, but also a number of research reports on the pharmacological effects of basidiomycetes in recent years, all of which have been subjected to heat treatment when extracting medicinal components, It can be said that most of the pharmacological effects are obtained from heat-stable components. No pharmacological effects from other heat-labile components have been reported.

It became clear that various medicinal effects can be obtained even from components that are unstable to heat. That is, in a dry powder obtained by drying maitake at a temperature of 50 ° C. or less, components having a medicinal effect such as weight loss of obesity, blood pressure effect of hypertension, and serum lipid lowering effect of hyperlipidemia are present.

ある。It has been confirmed that the low-temperature dried powder of the fruit body of Maitake mushroom extracted in this manner has the above-mentioned effects of weight loss for obesity, blood pressure reduction for hypertension, and serum lipid reduction for hyperlipidemia. I have. However, maitake fruit bodies dried at a low temperature of 50 ° C. or less may have a viable cell count of more than 1 million per gram or become positive for coliform bacteria. Causes hygiene problems. Therefore, in order to process maitake dried at such a low temperature as food, it is necessary to sterilize the dried maitake. However, as described above, the aqueous solution of dried maitake is vulnerable to heat and is inactivated at 40 to 60 ° C., and when sterilized by heating, heat-labile medicinal ingredients disappear. The present invention solves this problem,
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a dried powder of a fruit body of Maitake, which can be sterilized and safely processed as a food without destroying the heat-labile medicinal component of Maitake.

According to the study of the present inventors, the fruiting body of Maitake is 50 ° C.
The powder is dried at the following temperature, and the dried powder obtained by pulverizing the powder is mixed with water to form a paste or suspension, and the above-mentioned medicinal effects are obtained when the powder is heated to 50 ° C. or more. It has been confirmed that it is not possible. That is, even if the fruit body of Maitake was dried at a low temperature, water was added to the dried powder to make it contain water.
It was found that the above-mentioned medicinal components disappeared when the above heat was applied. Therefore, in the present invention, the fruit body of Maitake is dried at a low temperature of 50 ° C. or less to reduce moisture,
Heat sterilization is performed while maintaining the reduced water state, so that the above-mentioned medicinal components can be sterilized to a state suitable for processing as food without losing the medicinal components.

乾燥粉末を得るのに適当であることがわかった。As is evident from the results of Experiment 2, when raw mushrooms contaminated with various bacteria were dried at a low temperature to a water content of 7 to 8% (Comparative Example 4), they were caused by heat unstable components. Even if a medicinal effect is obtained, the viable cell count does not decrease and Escherichia coli is also positive, so it is not suitable for food processing. In addition, when raw mushrooms contaminated with various bacteria are dried at a low temperature until the water content becomes 20%, and further sterilized at a temperature of 75 ° C. for 3 hours (Comparative Example 5), the number of viable bacteria is suitable for food processing. , And the coliform group was also positive. On the other hand, when the raw maitake mushrooms contaminated with various bacteria are dried at a low temperature until the water content becomes 20%, and further sterilized at a temperature of 90 ° C. for 3 hours (the present invention), the number of viable bacteria is reduced to 300 or less per gram. And the coliform group was also negative. From this result, 90 ° C
It has been found that heat sterilization at a temperature of 3 hours is suitable for obtaining a dried powder of maitake for food processing.

のに適当な程度に殺菌することができる。As described above, the fruit body of Maitake is dried at a low temperature of 50 ° C. or less until the water content becomes 20% or less, to obtain a dry powder, and sterilized by heating while keeping the water content of the dry powder at 20% or less. By doing so, it is possible to sterilize maitake to a degree suitable for processing as food without losing the heat-labile medicinal component of maitake.
