Abstract: The method of producing a meat-like food product according to the present invention includes adding a plant-derived protein and a form of granular powder (A) satisfying the conditions (1) to (4) below to food product materials to prepare a dough. The dough contains 0% by mass or more and 30% by mass or less of an animal-derived protein material. (1) The form of granular powder has a starch content of 75% by mass or more; (2) the form of granular powder contains 3% by mass or more and 45% by mass or less of a molecular weight-reduced starch of a starch having an amylose content of 5% by mass or more, the molecular weight-reduced starch having a peak molecular weight of 3×103 or more and 5×104 or less; (3) the form of granular powder has a degree of swelling in cold water at 25° C. of 5 or more and 20 or less; and (4) the content of matters under a sieve having an opening of 3.35 mm and on a sieve having an opening of 0.038 mm is 50% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less.

Abstract: The present invention provides a composition having an antifungal activity without depending on conventional compositions having anticandidal activity or combinations of such compositions. The composition comprises a complex of lysozyme bonded to chitosan. The composition according to the present invention is applicable to candidiasis of the skin and mucous membranes, in particular, oral candidiasis and vagina candidiasis affecting a large number of patients and can ameliorate the symptoms of these diseases, heal the same and prevent infection of the same. The composition comprises a complex of lysozyme, which has been widely used as a highly safe natural food additive, with a polysaccharide and, therefore, can reassure patients who use the same and ease their burden. The composition according to the present invention comprises a complex of lysozyme, which is a highly safe natural food additive, with a polysaccharide and, therefore, can be safely used by patients without considering any risk.
