This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of breads with added Phellinus linteus grown in brown rice (BRPL). For color values, with increasing added BRPL powder, "lightness" decreased in the crumb while "redness" and "yellowness" increased ($^{***}$ p<0.001). The highest scores in volume and specific volume were observed in white pan bread with 5% BRPL powder added. When 10%, 15%, and 20% BRPL powder were substituted for equal amounts of strong flour, the volume and specific volume ratios of white pan bread decreased ($^{***}$ p<0.001). In texture measurements for white pan breads, hardness decreased slightly with the addition of 5% BRPL powder, but significantly ($^{***}$ p<0.001) increased with addition of 10%, 15%, and 20% BRPL powder. The addition of the BRPL powder significantly increased the springiness, gumminess, and brittleness of the white pan bread. The highest sensory scores for color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptance were obtained from white pan bread with 5% BRPL powder added ($^{***}$ p<0.001). By the results of these experiments, we can conclude that the hightest quality of bread with added BRPL powder has no more than 10% added BRPL powder content.

The present study describes the preliminary evaluation of the anti-inflammatory activities of Phellinus linteus (PL) and Phellinus linteus Grow in Germinated Brown Rice (BRPL). In order to effectively screen for anti-inflammatory agents, we first examined the extracts' inhibitory effects on the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines activated with lipopolysaccharide. Moreover, we examined the inhibitory effects of the PL and BRPL extracts on pro-inflammatory factors such as NO, iNOS, $TNF-{\alpha}$ and $IFN-{\gamma}$ in murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. NO production and iNOS expression was significantly augmented in LPS treated cell, the production of NO and iNOS was greater in the BRPL than in the PL group. In addition, protein and mRNA levels of $TNF-{\alpha}$ and $IFN-{\gamma}$ in BRPL showed relatively more potent pro-inflammatory-activity inhibition compared to that of PL. These results suggest that BRPL may have significant effects on inflammatory factors, and may be a potential anti-inflammatory therapeutic materials.
