“…Then, the spawns were lyophilized by using freeze dryer (Labconco) at -40ºC for 2 to 3 days. After that, the container containing the spawns was sealed and stored at 4ºC or room temperature for 1 month [12].…”

A study was conducted to determine the most optimal preservation technique for P. sajor-caju spawns which produce maximum specific growth rate and shortest doubling time by using contois kinetic model. The analyzed experimental data showed that lyophilized P. sajor-caju spawn showed the highest maximum specific growth rate, and shortest doubling time compared to cryopreserved P. sajor-caju spawn and 4oC stored P. spawn. There was no significant difference in aspect of growth rate between the lyophilization and cryopreservation techniques which were; 0.148 (μmax)/ (g/day) and 0.147(μmax)/ (g/day) respectively. Based on the result, lyophilization technique was considered as the best preservation technique for preserving P. sajor-caju spawn due to high maximum growth rate which indicates high survival after exposure to preservation treatment.

Many species of higher basidiomycetes have traditionally been used because of their medicinal properties. The positive effects associated to the consumption of those fungi have been mainly attributed to cell wall polysaccharides, which have important structural roles and are present throughout the entire life cycles of fungi. One of the most consumed and studied species native of the Americas is Agaricus subrufescens, a mushroom prescribed in different countries for prophylaxis and noninvasive treatment of numerous health-related disorders. Prior to the process of extraction, purification, and application of these polysaccharides, one needs to be concerned with the preservation of the specimen and production of fungal biomass. Even though basidiomata (syn. fruiting bodies, mushrooms) generally yield larger volumes of biomass when compared to the mycelium, cultivation of mycelium allows a more efficient control of the process and, therefore, is the method of choice of polysaccharide production. Mycelial biomass can be produced by solid-state fermentation (SSF) or submersed fermentation (SmF). Further separation and concentration of bioactive polysaccharides can be done by means of porous membranes, such as tangential flow nanofiltration.
