“…A positive correlation (R 2 > 0.94) was found, between biomass production and TP content, for all strains (for AMRL 74 a positive correlation was found until the 22nd day). This is in agreement with previous results for other mushrooms [55]. On the top of that, Desgranges et al [38] mentioned that TP content is increased as the age of the mycelium increases for the ascomycota Beauveria bassiana .…”

Morchella sp. is one of the most expensive mushrooms with a high nutritional profile. In this study, the polysaccharide content of Morchella species was investigated. Specifically, mycelium growth rate, biomass production, sclerotia formation, and glucosamine and total polysaccharides content of six Morchella species grown on a starch-based media were evaluated. Submerged fermentations in potato dextrose broth resulted in a glucosamine content of around 3.0%. In solid-state fermentations (SSF), using potato dextrose agar, a high linear growth rate (20.6 mm/day) was determined. Increased glucosamine and total polysaccharides content were observed after the formation of sclerotia. Biomass and glucosamine content were correlated, and the equations were used for the indirect estimation of biomass in SSF with agro-industrial starch-based materials. Wheat grains (WG), potato peels (PP), and a mixture of 1:1 of them (WG–PP) were evaluated as substrates. Results showed that the highest growth rate of 9.05 mm/day was determined on WG and the maximum biomass yield (407 mg/g) on WG–PP. The total polysaccharide content reached up to 18.4% of dried biomass in WG–PP. The results of the present study proved encouraging for the efficient bioconversion of potato and other starch-based agro-industrial waste streams to morel biomass and sclerotia eliciting nutritional and bioactive value.

“…Mushrooms are recognized as the functional food supporting for human health benefits. Pleurotus ostreatus is one of the most commonly edible mushroom cultivated in worldwide [1,11]. Nutritional determination showed that P. ostreatus has high content of carbohydrates (68.35%), proteins (20.82%) and fibers (45.50%) and small amounts of fats (0.56%), ash (5.81%) and moisture (4.46%) (Table 1).…”

Pleurotus ostreatus, the worldwide edible mushroom, has a potent economic values and medicinal properties. In this study, nutritional properties, antioxidant, and anti-acetylcholinesterase activities of P. ostreatus were investigated. The extracts were prepared by maceration and soxhlet extraction with ethanol and decoction with distilled water. Nutritional analysis showed that P. ostreatus has high content of fibers (45.5%), proteins (20.8%) and carbohydrates (68.4%) with low content of lipids (0.56%). HPLC analysis revealed that P. ostreatus has high content of the potential health promoting of β-glucan (42.8%). Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a key enzyme in nervous system. Inhibition of this enzyme is used for the symptomatic treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most common disease in aging population. Ellman colorimetric method was used to determine Acetylcholinesterase inhibitory (AChEI) activity. All extracts found containing high AChEI activity (IC50 = 1.75-5.91 mg/ml). Oxidative stress plays a major role in the pathogenesis of AD, thus antioxidant activity was also performed in this study. DPPH assay exhibited all P. ostreatus extracts had high antioxidant activity (IC50 = 0.59-5.47 mg/ml). The results suggested that P. ostreatus should be beneficial for AD treatment and the most efficient nutraceutical and functional foods.
