Stain removing, juice-clarifying, and starch-liquefying potentials of amylase from Pleurotus tuberregium in submerged fermentation system.

Background: Amylase is used commercially in food, textiles, sugar syrup, paper, and detergent industries. Bacteria and fungi remain a significant source of industrial enzymes. Pleurotus tuberregium is a macro-fungi that can exist as a fruiting body, sclerotium, mycelium, and spores.

Green Synthesis of Mycometabolites: A Review on Aqueous Extraction and Bioactivities.

A significant knowledge gap currently exists in the literature on the emerging interventions and bioactivity of aqueous extracts of mushrooms. Different solvents and techniques used in the extraction of mushroom metabolites have been discussed. Here, data obtained were analyzed using Microsoft Excel and presented in charts.

Development of high yielding strain of -: fructification, nutritional and phylogenetic studies.

Mushrooms are nutritionally rich, healthy and medicinal. - (Fr.) is one of the nutritious medicinal mushroom found in the tropics and subtropics, but with history of slow growth and low sclerotia yield.

Optimization of the Process for Producing Biomass and Exopolysaccharide from the King Tuber Oyster Mushroom, Pleurotus tuber-regium (Agaricomycetes), for Biotechnological Applications.

The optimization of microbial growth for biotechnological purposes traditionally requires an approach that uses only one variable at a time, which has many drawbacks. This research used a completely randomized approach to optimize carbon and nitrogen nutrient requirements and growth factors (pH and temperature) for Pleurotus tuber-regium in order to optimally produce biomass and extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) in shake-flask cultures. An artificial neural network (ANN) module was used to simulate the fungus-growing process and hence determine optimal conditions.
