Abstract

This study was concentrated to investigate the dependency of recovery yield on the extraction conditions. From fruiting body, the extracted amount of polysaccharide was studied with various solvent. In order to maximize the yield, the optimum extraction conditions were elucidated with respect to solvent, temperature and time. In addition, the dialysis was applied to obtain the higher purity of polysaccharide with varying the exposure time.
