نبذة مختصرة : In this study, Phellinus linteus polysaccharides (PLPS) and proteins were simultaneously separated from P . linteus mycelia by using an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) based on choline chloride ([Chol]Cl)/K 2 HPO 4 , and the physicochemical and antioxidant properties of PLPS after ATPS extraction were evaluated. Results demonstrated that the maximal extraction efficiencies of 68.53% ± 0.29% PLPS and 82.37% ± 0.41% proteins were obtained when the cholinium-based ATPS contained 68.9% K 2 HPO 4 , 20% [Chol]Cl, 10.0 mg mL −1 crude water extract (1.0 mL), and distilled water (4.0 mL) at shaking time and temperature of 30 min and 21.2 °C, respectively. Compared with C-PLPS obtained using traditional ethanol precipitation and isolation protocols, PLPS had higher carbohydrate content (63.58% ± 1.12%), lower molecular weight (15.2 kDa, 80%), different monosaccharide compositions, and showed similar preliminary structural characterizations. Moreover, PLPS exhibited more evident scavenging effects on free radicals and in vitro antioxidant activities than C-PLPS. Therefore, the method of [Chol]Cl/K 2 HPO 4 ATPS can be developed as an effective strategy for the separation/purification of highly bioactive polysaccharides.
