mycolabadmin

Scientists have discovered a new way to create tiny fluorescent particles called carbon nanodots from oyster mushrooms using heat treatment. These particles glow under certain light conditions and show promising ability to fight bacteria like E. coli. The process is environmentally friendly, uses waste mushroom material, and could lead to new ways to treat infections and reduce dependence on antibiotics.

Researchers studied oyster mushrooms processed in different ways to understand their health benefits. The study found that cooked oyster mushroom powders can kill harmful bacteria and promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. These mushrooms also contain special particles called carbon nanodots that form during cooking and may enhance their health-promoting effects. The findings suggest oyster mushrooms could help maintain a healthy gut microbiota naturally.
