<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mushroom irradiated with ultraviolet rays and a method for producing the mushroom irradiated with ultraviolet rays, in which active ingredients which fresh mushroom of a raw material have originally and active ingredients obtained by irradiating the mushroom with ultraviolet rays can effectively be utilized by applying a decomposing step for adding a catabolic enzyme capable of selectively decomposing intercellular substances of plants, etc., without decomposing cell walls of plants, etc., and a catabolic enzyme capable of decomposing the cell walls to a mushroom irradiated with ultraviolet rays and decomposing a fruit body of the mushroom irradiated with ultraviolet rays to the mushroom and environment-friendliness is performed by reducing the discarded amount of mushrooms discarded because of insufficient quality control of drying step, etc. to the utmost. <P>SOLUTION: The method for producing the mushroom irradiated with ultraviolet rays comprises an ultraviolet ray-irradiating step for irradiating a mushroom as a raw material with ultraviolet rays and a decomposing step for adding a catabolic enzyme capable of selectively decomposing intercellular substances of plants, etc., without decomposing cell walls of plants, etc. and a catabolic enzyme capable of decomposing the cell walls to a mushroom irradiated with ultraviolet rays and making the mushroom pulpy or liquid. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
