Agro-residues disinfection methods for mushroom cultivation: A review

Abstract: Agro residues have effectively been utilized as a substrate in mushroom cultivation. The substrates used in cultivating edible mushroom requires varying degree of pre-treatments in order to promote the growth of mushroom mycelium by excluding other competitor microorganisms. Sterilization using hot water, steam or chemical methods is done to disinfect the substrate. However, sterilization is not an ideal disinfection method as it kills both beneficial and harmful organisms in the substrate. Pasteurisation of t… Show more

“…Thus, treatment of substrates using hot water can be effective in producing mushrooms in rural areas (Akhter; Chowdhury; Aminuzzaman, 2017) if it is wellexecuted and raw materials are used appropriately. Other alternatives to the autoclaving system are composting or pasteurization; these methods have provided good results in the cultivation of mushrooms at a lower cost (compared to autoclaving) and without eliminating beneficial microorganisms present in the substrate (Gowda;Manvi, 2019). The choice of the substrate used in mushroom cultivation is extremely important since it influences the centesimal composition of the mushrooms and allows the optimization of production according to the desired nutritional characteristics.…”

“…Substrate treatments include conventional methods, such as thermal (pasteurization with hot water or steam) and chemical disinfection (with formaldehyde, carbendazim, chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, and calcium hydroxide) (Rodriguez;Pecchia, 2017;Gowda;Manvi, 2019). Although they are not effective in the complete elimination of antagonistic microorganisms, they reduce the level of microorganisms sufficiently for cultivation (Dias, 2010).…”

“…Ideally, all seeds, nematodes, insects, and other organisms that thrive at the temperatures used to grow the mushrooms must be killed by the efficient procedure [14]. Steam sterilization, immersion in hot water, and chemical treatment methods are described in the oyster mushroom cultivation protocol [15]. However, very few studies have been published in the literature to evaluate the efficacy of these sterilization methods that influence mushroom's quality and quantity [16].…”

“…Media sterilization is one of the most important processes in the cultivation of oyster mushrooms because the media that has been made usually still contains many microbes, especially wild mushrooms [7]. Conventional sterilization is generally carried out for 8 hours at a temperature of 70-95 o C [8]. Oyster mushroom cultivation of them, can be done with a steam technique using the drum.…”
