Production of polysaccharides of Ganoderma lucidum () by reusing thin stillage

Sacchachitin, a novel chitin-polysaccharide conjugate macromolecule present inGanoderma lucidum: Purification, composition, and properties

“…In liquid fermentation with the rice spirit waste water plus glucose, Hsieh et al (2005) obtained polysaccharides form G. lucidum that had MW only ranging within 10-200 kDa, being far smaller than what we have found ( Table 2). As can be expected, in The method for determination of the degree of deacetylation was following Lin et al (1992).…”

The Effect of the Hot Water Extracts of the <i>Paecilomyces hepiali </i>and <i>Cordyceps militaris</i> Mycelia on the Growth of Gastrointestinal Bacteria

“…Nutritional requirements of higher fungi play critical role in production of mycelia in submerged cultures. It has been found that medium constituents strongly affect chemical composition, structure and productivity [19] [20]. Mycelial biomass is one of the useful product containing various bioactive compounds, production yield of mycelial biomass should be simultaneously considered in the processes of submerged culture of P. hepiali and C. militaris.…”

Effect of Chinese Herb Extract on the Formation of Triterpenoids in Shake-Flask Cultures of Antrodia cinnamomea

“…Intracellular polysaccharides were extracted from dried mycelia (100 mg) by suspending the mycelia in 10 mL of distilled water and autoclaving at 15 psi, 121°C for 20 min [27]. Samples from the shake flasks were centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 10 min, and the supernatant obtained was then mixed with four volumes of 95% (v/v) ethanol, stirred vigorously and left overnight at 4°C.…”

“…Owing to the characteristics of high organic content and low pH, thin stillage is difficult to treat. Therefore, developing an effective process for reutilization of the distillery wastewater is highly desired [24][25][26][27][28]. In the study, thin stillage was reused for A. cinnamomea mycelial culture to investigate the influences of adding Chinese herb water extract on the mycelia growth and bioactive component production.…”
