Abstract:

This paper mainly deals with effects of different carbon sources, carbon source amount and medium pH on accumulation of acidic polysaccharides in Tremella fuciformis mycelia during submerged fermentation. Along with this, the fractionation of the polysaccharides by DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow chromatography is also discussed in this paper. Results showed that the fermentation medium containing 1% sucrose at pH 7.0 was conducive to the enrichment of acidic polysaccharides. The distribution of polysaccharide in mycelia and fruit body of Tremella fuciformis revealed a significant change.

Key words: Tremella fuciformis, mycelium, acidic polysaccharide, submerged fermentation
