USE OF CORDYCEPS CICADAE MYCELIUM ACTIVE SUBSTANCE FOR PRODUCING COMPOSITIONS FOR PREVENTING, DELAYING, OR TREATING CHANGE IN ANTERIOR/POSTERIOR CHAMBER VOLUME, CHANGE IN VITREOUS HUMOR, AND/OR RETINAL DETACHMENT

摘要

To provide use of Cordyceps cicadae mycelium active substance for producing compositions for preventing, delaying, or treating ocular diseases including the change in anterior/posterior chamber volume, the change in vitreous humor, and/or retinal detachment.SOLUTION: A method for preparing a Cordyceps cicadae mycelium active substance comprises the following steps: (a) culturing Cordyceps cicadae mycelia on a plate medium at 15 to 35°C for 5 to 14 days; (b) inoculating a flask with the Cordyceps cicadae mycelia of step (a) and culturing the mycelia at 15 to 35°C for 3 to 7 days at pH 2 to 8; and (c) inoculating a fermenter with the Cordyceps cicadae mycelia of step (b) and culturing the mycelia at 15 to 35°C for 3 to 5 days at pH 2-8 while stirring to obtain a fermented solution of Cordyceps cicadae mycelia containing a Cordyceps cicadae mycelium active substance.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
