T1 Polysaccharides of Medicinal Caterpillar Fungus, Cordyceps militaris (L.:Fr.) Link (Ascomycetes): Production and Composition JF International Journal of Medicinal Mushrooms JO IJM YR 2010 FD 2011-02-04 VO 12 IS 4 SP 419 OP 425 K1 Cordyceps militaris K1 medicinal fungi K1 medicinal mushrooms K1 cultivation conditions K1 polysaccharides K1 IR-spectra K1 light irradiation AB The production of biomass, exo- and endopolysaccharides, composition of polysaccharides under different conditions of cultivation, and infrared (IR) spectra of polysaccharides of the medicinal species Cordyceps militaris (L.:Fr.) Link were studied. It was demonstrated that the content of glucose in endopolysaccharides’ composition was 18−40%, and in exopolysaccharides it was 64%. The composition of polysaccharides depended on cultivation conditions and wavelength of light during irradiation of mycelium.
