Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、ヤマブシタケ等のサンゴハリタケ属に属するきのこを含む、風味に優れた食品および抗酸化性の高い組成物に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
ヤマブシタケ(Hericium erinaccum)は、別名ホウトウクウとも呼ばれるサンゴハリタケ(Hericium)属に属するきのこの一種であり、古くから漢方薬として重宝されてきた。
例えば中国においては、慢性的な胃病の治療薬として用いられており、又、最近では、その他の生理作用として、抗痴呆効果、免疫機能の調節効果、抗腫痕効果等多くの有用性も報告されている。
【0003】
このようなヤマブシタケの生理効果を得るためには、これを長期間継続的に摂取する事が好ましいが、ヤマブシタケは、中華料理で高級な食材とされているフカヒレやツバメの巣と同様に、そのもの自体には殆ど味や臭いがなく特別な調理方法により高級な料理として提供されるのが一般的で、しかも生のままでは傷みやすいため、乾燥物で提供され、これを調理味付けするには時間がかかり長期間継続的に摂取するのは困難なため、より飲食しやすい形でのヤマブシタケ含有食品の開発が求められている。
【0004】
このため、ヤマブシタケには不快な臭いが無いにもかかわらず不快臭の抑制に関するとされる試みも幾つかなされており、例えば、特開平11−75793号公報には、ヤマブシタケの粉末に、ウコン等の植物成分を混合した飲料用の組成物が記載され、同組成物を熱湯で抽出する事により、無理なく摂取可能なヤマブシタケエキス入り飲料が得られるものとされている。また、特開2001−86954号公報には、甘蔗由来の抽出物をヤマブシタケと併用する事により、ヤマブシタケの不快臭を抑制できると記載されている。
【0005】
しかしながら、これらの手段によってもヤマブシタケの継続的な摂取を容易にする事はできず、より風味の改善された、日常的に摂取しやすいヤマブシタケ含有食品の提供が望まれている。
【0006】
一方、前述したヤマブシタケの抗腫痕効果等は、生体内における抗酸化作用に基づくものと考えられていることから、ヤマブシタケを摂取すれば、癌のみならず、生体内の脂質等の抗酸化に基づく、老化、炎症等の障害を予防、抑制する事が出来るものと期待されている。
このため、より効果的かつ低コストで、ヤマブシタケによる抗酸化効果の増強、特に生体内における過酸化反応の抑制を行うことが望まれている。

実施例1
ヤマブシタケ子実体を1cm角に細断し、25℃の通気環境下で1日自然乾燥させ、これを乳鉢にて摩砕しヤマブシタケの乾燥体粉末を得た。
これに、表1に示す処方にて各種茶類の粉末、サイクロデキストリンあるいはアスコルビン酸を混合し、打錠して、ヤマブシタケ含有タブレットを製造した。
【0025】
【表1】

Figure 2004248525
【0026】
得られたタブレットについて、製造直後の風味評価を10名のパネラーにより行った。また、サンプル5については、40℃にて60日間保存した後の風味評価も同様して行った。
なお、風味の評価基準は以下の通りとした。
+2:きのこ臭が感じられず風味良好
+1:きのこ臭ほとんど感じられない
0:きのこ臭がやや感じられる
−1:特異なきのこ臭が強い
【0027】
その結果、茶葉の添加により、わずかにあるきのこ臭が軽減し、公知のマスキング剤であるサイクロデキストリンと同等以上の風味改善効果がなされ、茶葉として緑茶を用いた場合の風味が良好であり、緑茶とアスコルビン酸を併用した場合には、相乗的に風味の改善効果が得られた。
また、サンプル5の保存後の風味評価の結果は1.1であり、製造直後と同等の効果が維持されていることがわかった。

5週齢のBALB/C雄マウスを1週間即馴化飼育した後、1群5匹ずつに群分けた。試験群Aには、生理食塩水に懸濁したヤマブシタケ磨砕物(ヤマブシタケ乾燥重量として0.4g/日/匹)を、3週間胃ゾンデにより連日投与した。試験群Bには緑茶粉末(0.2g/日/匹)を、試験群Cにはアスコルビン酸(0.01g/日/匹)、試験群Dにはヤマブシタケ磨砕物(ヤマブシタケ乾燥重量として0.4g/日/匹)、緑茶粉末(0.2g/日/匹)及びアスコルビン酸(0.01g/日/匹)を同様に投与した。対照群には、生理食塩水を投与した。
最初の1週間は基本飼料を、次の2週間は飼料Bを与えた。なお、飼料及び水は、試験期間を通じ自由摂取とした。
【0036】
(3)結腸粘膜の過酸化脂質含量の測定
過酸化脂質は、TBARS(チオバルビツール酸反応性物質)として定量した。試験開始3週間後にペントノバルビタール麻酔下で解剖し、結腸粘膜を採取した。結腸粘膜は生理食塩水で洗浄後、湿重量の10倍量の1.15% KCl溶液を加え、水冷しながらテフロンホモジナイザーで均質化した。この結腸粘膜ホモジネート0.1mlをねじ口試験管に分取した。
他方、酢酸80mlと蒸留水320mlを混合し、10N水酸化ナトリウムでpH3.5に調整して、TBARS測定用緩衝液とした。
【0037】
前記ねじ口試験管に、8.1%ドデシル硫酸ナトリウム0.2ml、TBARS測定用緩衝液0.5ml、0.8%ブチルヒドロキシトルエン酢酸溶液0.05ml、0.8%テオノスルビソール酸溶液1.0ml、5mMエチレンジアミン四酢酸溶液0.7ml蒸留水1.5mlを順次混合した。この混合液を4℃で1時間静置した後、沸騰水浴中で1時間加熱し、氷水中で冷却した。これに蒸留水1.0ml、n−ブタノール・ピリジン(15:1)混合液5.0mlを加え、TBERSをn−ブタノール・ピリジン層に抽出し、抽出液の蛍光強度(Ex.515nm、Ex.553nm)を測定した。
TBARS値は、組織蛋白質量あたりのマロンジアルデヒド(MDA)相当量として表した。なお、蛋白質含量は、BCAプロテイン・アッセイ・キット(ピアス社製)を用いて測定した。
【0038】
(4)結果
表5に示す通り、試験群A〜Cにおいて、過酸化脂質含量が低値傾向を示し、特に、試験群Dの抗酸化効果が優れていた。なお、飼育期間中に、群間の体重に有意な差は認められなかった。これらの知見から、ヤマブシタケ、緑茶及びアスコルビン酸を併用した場合には、腸管粘膜の酸化障害を相乗的に低減させることがわかった。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a food having an excellent flavor and a composition having high antioxidant properties, including a mushroom belonging to the coral genus Mushroom such as Yamabushitake.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Yamabushitake (Hericium erinaccum) is a kind of mushroom belonging to the genus Coralum mushroom (Hericium), which is also called birch mushroom, and has been useful as a herbal medicine since ancient times.
For example, in China, it has been used as a therapeutic drug for chronic gastric diseases, and recently, it has also reported many other physiological effects such as anti-dementia effect, immune function regulating effect, and anti-tumor effect. Have been.
[0003]
In order to obtain such a physiological effect of Yamabushitake, it is preferable to take it continuously for a long period of time, but Yamabushitake is similar to shark fins and swallow's nest, which are high quality ingredients in Chinese cuisine. It is generally provided as a high-class dish by a special cooking method with almost no taste or smell, and because it is fragile as it is, it is provided as a dry product and it takes time to cook and season it. Therefore, it is difficult to continuously ingest the food for a long period of time, and there is a demand for development of a food containing Yamabushitake in a form that is easier to eat and drink.
[0004]
For this reason, some attempts have been made to suppress unpleasant odors even though Yamabushitake has no unpleasant odor. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-75793 discloses that powder of yamabushitake contains turmeric and the like. And a beverage composition obtained by mixing the plant components of the above, and extracting the composition with boiling water can provide a drink containing Yamabushitake extract that can be taken without difficulty. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-86954 describes that an unpleasant odor of Yamabushitake can be suppressed by using an extract derived from sugar cane in combination with Yamabushitake.
[0005]
However, even by these means, continuous consumption of Yamabushitake cannot be facilitated, and it is desired to provide a Yamabushitake-containing food with improved flavor and easy to ingest on a daily basis.
[0006]
On the other hand, since the anti-tumor effect of Yamabushitake mentioned above is considered to be based on the antioxidant effect in the living body, if Yamabushitake is ingested, not only cancer but also antioxidant such as lipids and the like in the living body are taken. It is expected to be able to prevent and suppress disorders such as aging, inflammation and the like.
For this reason, it is desired to enhance the antioxidant effect of Yamabushitake more effectively and at a lower cost, and particularly to suppress the peroxidation reaction in a living body.

【Example】
Hereinafter, examples of the present invention will be described, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.
Embodiment 1 FIG .
The Yamabushitake fruit body was cut into 1 cm squares, air-dried under a ventilation environment of 25 ° C. for 1 day, and ground in a mortar to obtain a dried powder of Yamabushitake.
To this, powders of various teas, cyclodextrin or ascorbic acid were mixed according to the formulation shown in Table 1, followed by tableting to produce tablets containing Yamabushitake.
[0025]
[Table 1]
Figure 2004248525
[0026]
The resulting tablets were evaluated for flavor immediately after production by 10 panelists. For Sample 5, the flavor evaluation after storage at 40 ° C. for 60 days was performed in the same manner.
In addition, the evaluation criteria of the flavor were as follows.
+2: Mushroom smell is not felt and flavor is good +1: Mushroom smell is hardly felt 0: Mushroom smell is slightly felt -1: Unique mushroom smell is strong
As a result, the addition of tea leaves slightly reduces the mushroom smell, has a flavor improving effect equivalent to or higher than that of cyclodextrin, which is a known masking agent, and has a good flavor when green tea is used as the tea leaves. When a combination of ascorbic acid and ascorbic acid was used, a synergistic effect of improving the flavor was obtained.
The result of flavor evaluation of Sample 5 after storage was 1.1, indicating that the same effect as that immediately after production was maintained.
[0028]
Embodiment 2 FIG .
An extract was prepared by extracting a composition containing 50 parts by weight of green tea leaves and 3 parts by weight of ascorbic acid with 100 parts by weight of Yamabushitake powder by using 20 times the amount of hot water at 80 ° C. In addition, an extract obtained by similarly extracting Yamabushitake with hot water was prepared. These were subjected to the same flavor evaluation as in Example 1 and the two were compared. As a result, the green tea leaves and the one in which ascorbic acid were used had an improved flavor, but the smell of mushrooms was felt as compared with the case of the solid food. Was.
[0029]
Embodiment 3 FIG .
Green tea leaf powder and ascorbic acid were added at various ratios shown in Table 2 to a dried body of Yamabushitake produced in the same manner as in Example 1, and tabletted to obtain a Yamabushitake-containing tablet, as in Example 1. The flavor was evaluated.
[0030]
[Table 2]
Figure 2004248525
[0031]
As a result, when green tea leaves are added in an amount of 10% by weight to 100% by weight and ascorbic acid in an amount of 0.5% by weight to 10% by weight as a dry weight relative to Yamabushitake, a tablet having a good flavor is obtained. Good results were obtained when the weight percent was 70% by weight and the ascorbic acid was 1% to 5% by weight.
[0032]
Embodiment 4 FIG .
The effect of the combination use of Yamabushitake, green tea leaves and ascorbic acid was examined using as an index the effect of various sample administrations on the colonic mucosal injury in mice.
(1) Preliminary test A basic feed having the composition shown in Table 3 and an iron-containing feed (iron content 0.07%) obtained by adding 0.2% iron fumarate to the basic feed were prepared. Male mice were administered for 2 weeks, and the content of lipid peroxide in the colonic mucosa was measured by the following method (3). As a result, as shown in Table 4, administration of the iron-containing feed increased the lipid peroxide content of the colonic mucosa about three-fold.
[0033]

[0035]
(2) Animals and breeding method BALB / C male mice of 5 weeks of age were immediately bred for 1 week, and then divided into groups of 5 mice. In the test group A, a ground trifoliate yamabushitake (0.4 g / day / animal as dry weight of yamabushitake) suspended in physiological saline was administered daily for 3 weeks by a gastric tube. In test group B, green tea powder (0.2 g / day / animal), in test group C, ascorbic acid (0.01 g / day / animal), and in test group D, ground Yamatake mushroom (Yamabushitake dry weight: 0.1%). 4 g / day / animal), green tea powder (0.2 g / day / animal) and ascorbic acid (0.01 g / day / animal) were similarly administered. The control group received saline.
Basic diet was given for the first week and feed B for the next two weeks. Feed and water were freely available throughout the test period.
[0036]
(3) Measurement of Lipid Peroxide Content of Colon Mucosa Lipid peroxide was quantified as TBARS (thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance). Three weeks after the start of the test, the mice were dissected under pentonobarbital anesthesia, and colonic mucosa was collected. After washing the colon mucosa with physiological saline, a 1.15% KCl solution 10 times the wet weight was added and homogenized with a Teflon homogenizer while cooling with water. 0.1 ml of the colon mucosa homogenate was dispensed into a screw-mouth test tube.
On the other hand, 80 ml of acetic acid and 320 ml of distilled water were mixed and adjusted to pH 3.5 with 10 N sodium hydroxide to obtain a TBARS measurement buffer.
[0037]
0.2 ml of 8.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate, 0.5 ml of TBARS measurement buffer, 0.05 ml of 0.8% butylhydroxytolueneacetic acid solution, 0.8% teonosulfisolic acid solution 1 0.0 ml, 0.7 ml of a 5 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid solution, and 1.5 ml of distilled water were sequentially mixed. The mixture was allowed to stand at 4 ° C. for 1 hour, heated in a boiling water bath for 1 hour, and cooled in ice water. To this, 1.0 ml of distilled water and 5.0 ml of a mixed solution of n-butanol / pyridine (15: 1) were added to extract TBERS into the n-butanol / pyridine layer, and the fluorescence intensity of the extract (Ex. 515 nm, Ex. 553 nm).
TBARS values were expressed as malondialdehyde (MDA) equivalents per tissue protein mass. The protein content was measured using a BCA protein assay kit (Pierce).
[0038]
(4) Results As shown in Table 5, in test groups A to C, the lipid peroxide content tended to be low, and in particular, test group D had an excellent antioxidant effect. During the breeding period, there was no significant difference in body weight between the groups. From these findings, it was found that the combined use of Yamabushitake, green tea, and ascorbic acid synergistically reduces intestinal mucosal oxidative damage.
