Evaluation of the Influence of Varied Juncao Grass Substrates on Physiological and Enzymatic Reactions of Pleurotus ostreatus

mycolabadmin

This study tested three types of Juncao grass as growing materials for oyster mushrooms as an eco-friendly alternative to using wood. Researchers measured how well the mushrooms grew, their nutritional value, and the enzymes produced during cultivation. The grass called Cenchrus fungigraminus produced the best results with the highest yield and quality, making it a promising sustainable solution for mushroom farming that helps reduce deforestation.

High Potential Decolourisation of Textile Dyes from Wastewater by Manganese Peroxidase Production of Newly Immobilised Trametes hirsuta PW17-41 and FTIR Analysis

mycolabadmin

This research shows that a fungus called Trametes hirsuta can effectively clean textile industry wastewater by breaking down colorful dyes that pollute the environment. The scientists attached the fungus to nylon sponges and optimized the treatment conditions to achieve over 95% color removal within just two days. The fungus produces special enzymes, particularly manganese peroxidase, that degrade the harmful dyes into safer substances, and the system can be reused repeatedly for continuous wastewater treatment.

Degradation of High Concentrations of Anthracene Using White-Rot Wood-Inhabiting Fungi and Investigation of Enzyme Activities

mycolabadmin

Scientists in Iran discovered that certain wood-decay fungi, particularly Trametes versicolor mushrooms, can effectively break down anthracene, a toxic pollutant from oil and gas industries. These fungi produce special enzymes that degrade the harmful chemical into less toxic substances. In laboratory tests, these indigenous Iranian fungi successfully removed 20-64% of high-concentration anthracene over four weeks, showing promise for cleaning up contaminated sites.

Kinetics of Manganese Peroxidase Using Simple Phenolic Compounds as Substrates

mycolabadmin

Researchers studied how manganese peroxidase, an enzyme produced by soil fungi, breaks down simple phenolic compounds found in plants. They tested three compounds with different structures and found that those without carboxylic acid groups (like pyrogallol) are better substrates for the enzyme and produce more stable products that accumulate in soil. This research helps explain how plant compounds contribute to soil health and nutrient cycling.

Selective Homologous Expression of Recombinant Manganese Peroxidase Isozyme of Salt-Tolerant White-Rot Fungus Phlebia sp. MG-60, and Its Salt-Tolerance and Thermostability

mycolabadmin

Scientists studied a special fungus from mangrove forests that can break down tough plant materials in salty environments. They created engineered versions that produce three different types of a cleanup enzyme called manganese peroxidase. One version of this enzyme was found to actually work better in salty conditions and remain stable at high temperatures, making it potentially useful for industrial applications in harsh environments.
