“…Mushrooms are known for their nutritional and therapeutic properties throughout the world. Cultivating them allows the bioconversion of waste into potentially valuable resources, which emphasizes the potential of this approach for sustainable agriculture and forestry on a global scale (Aditya et al 2024). In recent years, the nutritional benefits of mushrooms have been described in world literature.…”

From the Industrial Revolution, at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, there was a significant impact on the environment due to increased emission of environmental pollutants. This problem has seen considerable growth in recent years due to population growth, resulting in further ecosystem changes due to human action. Furthermore, demands for water, electricity, and food have led to increasingly large concentrations of waste being emitted. In this context, bioremediation is an up-and-coming biotechnological alternative to combat the growing emission of pollutants into the environment. From this perspective, basidiomycetes, popularly known as mushrooms, are an effective tool for remediating environmental pollutants. These fungi use different mechanisms in bioremediation processes, such as biodegradation, biosorption, bioaccumulation, and bioconversion. Currently, the remediation potential of mushrooms has been increasingly studied. Therefore, this bibliographic review aims to analyze the literature on the potential of mushrooms in pollutant remediation. At the end of this analysis, it is concluded that macrofungi are a very effective and promising tool for suppressing the emission of environmental pollutants.

“…They have useful properties in areas such as nutrition, biotechnology, medicine, and hygiene [1]. Numerous reports have detailed the many useful characteristics of the Pleurotus genus, confirming the appeal of this inexpensive machinery equipment in easing the load of environmental concerns [2,3]. Nanotechnology has been widely studied in areas of materials technology research, with nanoparticles (NPs) being minor particles that measures from 1-100 nm in one dimension [4].…”

The present study deals with in vitro experiments for to develop synthesized copper oxide nanoparticles using Pleurotus cystidiosus. Mushroom-based nanoparticles, such as copper nanoparticles have become more significant because of potential biocatalytic properties, including antibacterial activity. The blue-to-brown color shift suggests CuONPs, as confirmed by absorbance maxima at 246 nm in ultraviolet spectroscopy. FTIR spectra reveal the existence of carboxyl, alcohol, and aldehyde carbon; the amine group represents the myco-synthesized copper nanoparticle. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) nanoparticles show spherical to oval nano aggregates of 80–110 nm in size. The EDX spectrum confirms the presence of Cu at 8.00 keV in myco-synthesized copper oxide nanoparticles. The antimicrobial efficacy of produced copper oxide nanoparticles on human pathogens showed a maximum zone of inhibition against coliform bacteria such as Enterococcus faecalis (32 ± 2), Enterobacter aerogenes (30 ± 1), E. coli (28 ± 1) and least zone of inhibition about 25 ± 1 mm recorded in Streptococcus mutans. The photocatalytic activity of Congo red dye, Malachite green dye, and Remazol blue dye by copper oxide nanoparticles from Pleurotus cystidiosus was investigated, and the results showed a maximum degradation efficiency of 99.2% in Congo red within 90 min. However, moderate degradation was noted in malachite green, and Remazol blue dye has a low degradation efficiency. Thus, myco-synthesized copper oxide nanoparticles from Pleurotus cystidiosus have potent antimicrobial and photocatalytic dye degradation efficacy.
