Title: Studies on the Polysaccharides Separated from Lentinus edodes (Shii-ta-ke)
Authors: M. Shida and K. Matsuda

Abstract:

The fruit-bodies of Lentinus edodes are the most popular edible mushroom in Japan and China. About 65% of the dried fruit-bodies consists of carbohydrate, most of which are present as polysaccharides together with a lesser proportion of low molecular-weight carbohydrate such as mannitol or trehalose. This paper reports the isolation of three water-soluble polysaccharides from the fruit-bodies of L. edodes and the results of structural studies on them (SHIDA et al, 1971; SHIDA et al, 1975).
