Abstract:

Cordyceps sinensis mycelia and polysaccharides were prepared by liquid fermentation with the medium of sucrose yeast extract. Through investigating effects of fermentation conditions on their yields, the optimum inoculation quantity, ventilation volume, fermentation temperature and time were confirmed as 5%, 1 L/min, 26 ℃ and 4 days, respectively.

Key words: Cordyceps sinensis, mycelium, liquid fermentation, polysaccharide
