Table 1. Table 1. Particle size distribution of coarse and superfine Hypsizygus marmoreus mushroom powders

Sample Particle size (μm)
d (0.1)1) d (0.5) d (0.9) Span2)
Coarse powder 25.392 168.085 542.109 3.074
Superfine powder 2.102 4.791 10.428 1.738
d (0.1), size when 10% in total particle size distribution; d (0.5), size when 50% in total particle size distribution; d (0.9), size when 90% in total particle size distribution.
Span, distribution width of sample = [d (0.9) - d (0.1)] /d (0.5)
