“…The mushrooms are used for the cancer therapies, due to its high tolerance and compatibility with the chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The fruit bodies of mushroom and its extracts are efficiently used as economically feasible option due to faster growth of fruiting body [58]. The significant bioactive substances originate in mushroom such as lentinan, schizophyllan, and PSK; they are all used in cancer chemotherapy as component of the drug cocktails with impressive results [58].…”

Lipases (triacylglycerolacyl hydrolases, EC3.1.1.3) are class of enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of long-chain triglycerides. In this review paper, an overview regarding the fungal lipase production, purification, and application is discussed. The review describes various industrial applications of lipase in pulp and paper, food, detergent, and textile industries. Some important lipase-producing fungal genera include Aspergillus, Penicillium, Rhizopus, Candida, etc. Current fermentation process techniques such as batch, fed-batch, and continuous mode of lipase production in submerged and solid-state fermentations are discussed in details. The purification of lipase by hydrophobic interaction chromatography is also discussed. The development of mathematical models applied to lipase production is discussed with special emphasis on lipase engineering.

“…Fermentation in the submerged state, also known as liquid-state fermentation (LSF), is a promising technology with regard to efficient production of these valuable compounds. Studies have already been conducted to determine the factors affecting the production of fungal mycelium, including broth composition, oxygenation levels, agitation rates, and different culture strategies [29][30][31][32] . In addition, the cost of the medium is important and could limit the production.…”

Among the secondary metabolites of pharmacological, chemical and biotechnological interest, triterpenoidal compounds are widely distributed throughout the fungi kingdom. Triterpenoids produced by species of the genus Pleurotus, basidiomycetes characterized by their important biological actions and excellent nutritional quality, can be obtained by fermentation processes that stimulate the production of the bioactive compounds. This study evaluates the effect of using 12 non-conventional carbon sources (CS) on the production of triterpenoids from 3 Pleurotus species: P. ostreatus, P. djamor and P. pulmonarius obtained in submerged culture. The variations found among these species with regard to their quantities and structural differences were dependent on the CS as well as the species, and it was concluded that the cultivation of the mycelium of P. pulmonarius with wheat bran promotes the production of the compounds of interest. In addition no direct influence of the C/N ratio of the substrate on the biosynthesis of the triterpenoids was observed, as reported in the case of other secondary metabolites such as polysaccharides and statins.

“…Estos hongos están ganando gran importancia biotecnológica y ambiental, debido a su capacidad de crecer sobre residuos lignocelulósicos agrícolas. Cabe señalar, que casi todas las producciones agrícolas generan cantidades enormes de rastrojo, que puede ser aprovechado para el cultivo de setas (Cohen, Persk, & Hadar, 2002;Ghorai et al, 2009). Por otro lado, durante la década pasada, P. ostreatus fue catalogado como alimento funcional, al igual que otros hongos, dados sus efectos benéficos para la salud.…”

“…These mushrooms are gaining great biotechnological and environmental importance due to their ability to grow on lignocellulosic agricultural waste. It should be pointed out that almost all agricultural operations generate enormous amounts of stubble, which can be used for mushroom growing (Cohen, Persk, & Hadar, 2002;Ghorai et al, 2009). On the other hand, P. ostreatus was classified in the past decade, like other mushrooms, as a functional food due to its beneficial health effects.…”

RESUMENC inco compuestos de una cepa comercial del hongo Pleurotus sp. se obtuvieron a partir de extracciones con acetato de etilo y metanol. Los compuestos se aislaron por medio de técnicas como la cromatografía en columna y en capa fina. Los siguientes esteroles fueron identificados mediante espectroscopía RMN 1 H: 1) ergosta-5, 7, 22-trien-3β-ol (ergosterol), 2) 5α, 8α-epidioxi-22E-ergosta-6, 22-dien-3β-ol (peróxido de ergosterol), 3) 3β, 5α, 6β, 9α-tetrahidroxiergosta-7, 22-dieno, 4) 3β, 5α, 6β, 9α-tetrahydroxyergosta-7, 22-dien y 5) 3β, 5α, 9α-trihidroxiergosta-7, 22-dien-6-ona. ABSTRACTF ive compounds in a commercial strain of the mushroom Pleurotus sp. were obtained from ethyl acetate and methanol extracts. The compounds were isolated using techniques such as column and thin layer chromatography. The following sterols were identified by 1 H NMR spectroscopy: 1) ergosta-5,7,22-trien-3β-ol (ergosterol), 2) 5α, 8α-epidioxy-22E-ergosta-6, 22-dien-3β-ol (ergosterol peroxide), 3) 3β,5α,6β,9α-tetrahidroxiergosta-7,22-dieno, 4) 3β, 5α, 6β, 9α-tetrahydroxyergosta-7, 22-dien and 5) 3β, 5α, 9α-trihidroxiergosta-7,22-dien-6-one.
