Mushroom and cereal β-D-glucan solid state NMR and FTIR datasets

mycolabadmin

This research provides a large database of spectroscopic measurements from β-D-glucans extracted from various mushrooms and cereal grains. The data includes detailed chemical fingerprints obtained through two analytical techniques (NMR and infrared spectroscopy) that can help researchers understand the structure and properties of these beneficial compounds. The dataset is freely available for other scientists to analyze and use for developing new methods or understanding how different mushroom and cereal sources vary in their chemical composition.

Effects of Freeze–Thaw Cycles on the Structures and Functional Properties of Clitocybe squamulosa Protein Isolates

mycolabadmin

Researchers studied how repeatedly freezing and thawing a protein extract from the edible Clitocybe squamulosa mushroom affects its usefulness in food products. They found that three freeze-thaw cycles improved the protein’s ability to create stable foams and emulsions, while two cycles best preserved digestibility and antioxidant benefits. This simple, chemical-free treatment method could help food manufacturers create better products using mushroom proteins.
