Functional Components from the Liquid Fermentation of Edible and Medicinal Fungi and Their Food Applications in China

mycolabadmin

Mushroom mycelium grown in liquid fermentation produces many beneficial compounds like polysaccharides and proteins that support immune function and may help fight cancer and oxidative stress. These fermented mushroom products can be added to foods, beverages, and health supplements to boost their nutritional value and health benefits. Studies show that fermented mushroom mycelium sometimes contains higher levels of beneficial compounds compared to whole mushroom fruiting bodies, making it a promising ingredient for functional foods and health products.

Impact of Artemisia argyi and Stevia rebaudiana substrate composition on the nutritional quality, yield and mycelial growth of L. edodes addressing future food challenges

mycolabadmin

This study tested using wormwood and stevia plant waste as alternatives to traditional wood chips in shiitake mushroom farming. Results showed that adding up to 45% wormwood or 30% stevia to growing substrates increased both the amount and nutritional quality of mushrooms produced. This sustainable approach addresses mushroom farming’s resource shortage while potentially improving the nutritional value of the final product, making it beneficial for both food production and environmental protection.

Impact of Artemisia argyi and Stevia rebaudiana substrate composition on the nutritional quality, yield and mycelial growth of L. edodes addressing future food challenges

mycolabadmin

This study shows that shiitake mushrooms can be grown on agricultural waste materials like wormwood and stevia instead of traditional sawdust. Using 45% wormwood or 30% stevia in the growing substrate improved both the mushroom yield and their nutritional content, including important compounds with health benefits. These findings suggest environmentally friendly and sustainable alternatives for mushroom farming that reduce reliance on wood resources while maintaining or improving food quality.

Valorization of various lignocellulosic wastes to Ganoderma lucidum (Curtis) P. Karst (Reishi Mushroom) cultivation and their FT-IR assessments

mycolabadmin

This research demonstrates how agricultural and forestry waste materials can be effectively converted into nutritious Reishi mushrooms through sustainable cultivation practices. Oak wood substrates produced the highest mushroom yields, while various agricultural wastes showed promising results for producing medicinal mushrooms. Using specialized spectroscopy techniques, scientists confirmed that the Reishi mushroom effectively breaks down and utilizes the complex plant materials in these waste substrates. This approach offers an environmentally friendly solution to waste management while producing valuable medicinal mushrooms.
