“…This breaks down the polysaccharides into less complex carbohydrates for optimum utilization. The decline in crude fibre values agrees with previous studies where rice husk and wheat straw were fermented with Pleurotus spp [22,26]. The decrease in the values of crude fibre may also be as a result of the utilization of carbohydrates by the fungus as an energy source for mycelia growth as explained earlier for NSP [11].…”

“…In addition, antifungal properties of some bacteria might have inhibited the potential of Pleurotus ostreatus as the fermentation time increased [21,22]. The increment of 44.17% in CP for the 7 days fermentation period compared favourably with the results obtained by other workers [4,5,6,22]. This is an indication of the potential biodegradable effects of Pleurotus ostreatus on cheap ligno-cellulosics and low-grade agro-wastes, with bioconversion to protein-rich products.…”

“…Living beings which use cellulosic materials for their carbon and vitality source could be abused for the transformation of these squanders into items that are helpful to man. Case in point, waste cellulosic materials give perfect substrates to the development of mushrooms while the growths can thus debase the stringy squanders and add parasitic protein to the spent substrates [46][47][48]. Recuperation and re-utilization of waste cellulose has been a subject of far reaching examinations as a method for allaying vitality and sustenance deficiencies [49,50].…”

“…Fungi have been shown to have cellulase enzyme which can degrade the fibre in cassava peel thereby making available more energy to monogastrics from hydrolysis of the fibrous materials (Belewu and Banjo, 1999;Raji et al, 1988;Sani et al, 1992). This ultimately promotes weight gained and overall improved performance (Atteh, 2000;Abdulrashid et al, 2007).…”
