Revitalization of the Endophytic Fungus Acremonium sp. MEP2000 and Its Impact on the Growth and Accumulation of Bioactive Compounds in Inonotus obliquus

mycolabadmin

Researchers successfully revived a beneficial fungus called Acremonium sp. MEP2000 that had lost its effectiveness through repeated cultivation by adding birch bark powder and medicinal mushroom powder to its growth medium. When used to treat the medicinal fungus Inonotus obliquus (chaga), this revitalized fungal culture dramatically improved the growth and production of healthy bioactive compounds like polysaccharides and triterpenoids. This breakthrough offers a practical solution for large-scale production of medicinal fungi with enhanced therapeutic potential for treating cancer, diabetes, and inflammatory conditions.

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.
