In this study, we investigate the potential use of persimmon peels (PP) in mushroom culture medium for the production of functional mushrooms. Pleurotus eryngii was cultivated in medium supplemented with PP (SMPP) at the following concentrations: 0% SMPP (control), 5% SMPP, 10% SMPP, 15% SMPP, 20% SMPP, or 30% SMPP. The total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging ability, ABTS cation scavenging ability, and reducing power of P. eryngii cultivated in SMPP were investigated. P. eryngii cultured in 20% SMPP produced the highest values for all four measurements. Total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS cation scavenging ability, and reducing power all increased upon the addition of PP. Based on our results, we can conclude that persimmon peels are a highly valuable supplement for functional mushroom culture medium.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of Kojongsi persimmon peels as a mushroom substrate on antioxidant activity of Pleurotus eryngii. The Pleurotus eryngii was growth on the medium with 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50% Kojongsi persimmon peels. The Pleurotus eryngii was extracted into ethanol and their antioxidant activities were analyzed. The total polyphenol content was highest in the 20% Kojongsi persimmon peels treatment (40±0.38 mg of gallic acid equivalents/100 g) than 0% Kojongsi persimmon peels treatment (21 ±0.18 mg of gallic acid equivalents/100 g). The 20% Kojongsi persimmon peels treatment showed better DPPH scavenging activity (36.81±0.23% at 1 mg/ml), ABTS scavenging activity (39.03±0.10% at 1 mg/ml) and reducing power (0.3±0.10% at 1 mg/ml) than 0% Kojongsi persimmon peels treatment and another extract ones. Overall, total polyphenol content and antioxidant activities of extracts from Pleurotus eryngii was increased dose dependently and 20% Kojongsi persimmon peels treatment was showed better total polyphenol content and antioxidant activities than 0% Kojongsi persimmon peels treatment and another extract ones.

The Kojongsi persimmon peels is byproduct after production of dried persimmon. This study was conducted to investigate optimal mixing ratio of Kojonsi persimmon peels as a substrate for cultivation of Pleurotus eryngii. The primary nutritive material of substrate for Pleurotus eryngii was corncob, soybean meal, beet pulp, ground corn and bran. Five to forty percent of persimmon peels were mixed with primary nutritive materials as new substrate. The chemical properties of substrate mixed with Kojongsi persimmon peels was similar to the mixture without Kojongsi persimmon peels in T-C, T-N, C/N ratio, and other nutrients. Mycelial growth time on medium with 5 to 30% persimmon peels was similar to the control without persimmon peels as 27 days but that on medium with 40% and 50% persimmon peels was delayed for 10 days. The time of pinhead formations in medium with 5 to 30% persimmon peels was 12 days, the growth time to harvest was 6 days. These results were similar to those of the control without persimmon peels. The sizes of pileus of treatments with 5 to 30% persimmon peels were tend to be smaller compared with the control. The length of stipe of 10% persimmon peels treatment was 80 mm which was shorter than that of the control with 120 mm.

본 연구는 지역 특산물인 감과피를 이용한 버섯배지 개 발을 위한 기초자료로서 감과피의 이용 가능성을 검토하 고자 수행되었으며 감과피는 경상남도 산청지역에서 곶감 을 생산하고 남은 것을 수거하여 건조한 후 사용하였고 공시균주는 ASI 2312를 사용하였다. 대조구는 혼합배지:콘코브:톱밥(220:65:15, v/v)을 혼합한 기본배지를 사용하 였고 기본배지 중 혼합배지를 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%의 건조된 감과피 처리구로 대체한 처리 구를 시험구로 사용하였다. 대조구인 기본배지에 비해 시 험구인 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% 감과피 처 리구의 T-N 함량은 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하 는 경향을 나타내었으며 T-C 함량은 큰 차이가 없었고 C/ N율은 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 증가하는 경향을 나 타내었다. 감과피 첨가량이 균사생장에 미치는 영향을 조 사한 결과 대조구보다 감과피가 첨가된 모든 시험구에서 균사생장이 느리게 나타났다. 감과피 첨가량에 따른 배양 일수는 대조구인 혼합배지에 비해 감과피를 30%까지 첨 가하여도 배양일수와 초발이 소요일수에는 뚜렷한 차이는 없었지만 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 배양일이 길어지는 경향을 보였으며 혼합배지에 비해 감과피 첨가비율이 증 가할수록 갓의 직경은 감소하고 대의 길이는 길어지고 직 경은 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 수확 후 동결 건조한 큰느타리버섯의 수분, 단백질, 조회분 함량은 대조구와 시 험구에서 유의성 있는 차이를 나타내지 않았지만 조지방 함량은 감과피 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 증가하는 경향을 나타내었고 β-glucan 함량은 대조구에 비해 10%와 15% 감과피 첨가구에서 높게 나타났다. 따라서 대조구와 비교 했을 때 15% 감과피 첨가구는 자실체 수량도 높게 나타 나고 β-glucan 함량도 높게 나타났기때문에 감과피 첨가 비율은 15%가 가장 적합한 것으로 사료된다.

This study was carried out to investigate optimal mixture of persimmon peels for Pleurotus eryngii cultivation. The 5-50% of persimmon peels was mixed with mushroom growing medium for Pleurotus eryngii cultivation. Mycelial growth of persimmon peels treatment were 74-165 mm (28 days) and slower than that of control (treatment without persimmon peels) as 160 mm (28 days). Mycelial growth time of 5-20% persimmon peels treatment were similar to control as 34 days but that 30-50% of persimmon peels treatment were delayed for 17 days. The time of pinhead formations in control and 5-50% persimmon peels treatment were 11 days, the growth time to harvest were 6-7 days. The sizes of pileus of 15% persimmon peels treatment was tend to be smaller compared with control. The length of stipe of 15% persimmon peels treatment was 124 mm which was longer than that of the control with 118 mm. The thickness of stipes of 15% persimmon peels treatments was 48 mm which were tend to be thicker than that of the control with 47 mm. Thirty percent of persimmon peels treatment was better than other treatment comparing with control.

This study was carried out to develope mushroom growing medium for Pleurotus eryngii cultivation using persimmon peels. Total nitrogen, carbon source and protein of commercial cultivation medium used in this study was 1.34, 53.9 and 0.09 %, respectively. The C/N ratio was 40.22. The total nitrogen was increased by increasing mixing ratio of persimmon peels. The carbon source and protein was no significant difference by increasing mixing ratio of persimmon peels. In column test, mycelial growth of 15% persimmon peels treatment was similar with control, but mycelia of 20-50% persimmon peels treatment was growed slowly compared with control. To investigate yields of fruiting body, 15% of persimmon peels was mixed with commercial cultivation medium. The fruiting body of 15% persimmon peels treatment was no significant difference yield compared with control. But, the chemical contents of 15% persimmon peels treatment were the higher than control.

본 연구는 지역 특산물인 감과피를 이용한 버섯배지 개발을 위한 기초자료로서 감과피의 이용 가능성을 검토하 고자 수행되었으며 감과피는 경상남도 진주시에 소재한 진주단감원예조합으로부터 건조된 것을 수집하여 사용하 였고 공시균주는 큰느타리 2312를 사용하였다. 대조구는 시판혼합배지를 사용하였고 건조된 감과피 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%이 첨가된 시판혼합배지를 시험구 로 사용하였다. 대조구인 시판혼합배지에 비해 시험구인 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%의 감과피가 첨가된 시 판혼합배지의 총질소 함량은 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며 총탄소와 유기물 함량은 큰 차이가 없었고 C/N율은 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 감과피 첨가량에 따른 시험 관 내에서의 균사생장을 조사한 결과 대조구인 시판혼합 배지보다 감과피가 첨가된 모든 배지에서 균사생장이 느 리게 나타났다. 시험구의 혼합배지 중 5% 감과피가 첨가 된 배지에서 균사 생장이 가장 빨라지만 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 균사 생장속도는 느려지는 경향을 보였다. 감 과피 첨가량에 따른 배양일수는 대조구인 시판혼합배지에 비해 감과피를 30%까지 첨가하여도 배양일수와 초발이 소요일수에는 뚜렷한 차이는 없었지만 감과피 첨가량이 증가할수록 배양일이 길어지는 경향을 보였으며 시판혼합 배지에 비해 감과피 첨가비율이 증가할수록 갓의 직경과 두께는 감소하고 대의 길이는 짧아지고 굵기는 굵어지는 경향을 나타내었다. 따라서 감과피를 배지자원으로 이용 하기 위해서는 감과피 첨가량에 따른 혼합배지의 조성비 가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Five to thirty percent of persimmon peels were added to mushroom medium to investigate mycelial growth. Mycelial growth on the medium with persimmon peels was 82~96 mm (28 days) and was slower than that of the control without persimmon peels as, 100 mm (28 days). Mycelial growth time on medium with 5 to 15% persimmon peels was similar to the control without persimmon peels as 28 days but that on medium with 30% persimmon peels was delayed for 4 days. The time of pinhead formations in medium with 10 to 20% persimmon peels was 8 days, the growth time to harvest was 10 days. These results were similar to those of the control without persimmon peels. The sizes of pileus of treatments with 10 to 30% persimmon peels were tend to be smaller compared with the control. The length of stipe of 10% persimmon peels treatment was 89 mm which was shorter than that of the control with 90 mm. The thickness of stipes of 10 to 20% persimmon peels treatments were 40 to 46 mm which were tend to be thicker than that of the control with 42 mm.
