Assessment of Raw Plant material and Substrate for Efficient production of Oyster Mushrooms (Pleurotusostreatus (Jacq.) P. Kumm.)

Microbial analysis of raw materials and substrate during all phases of thermal processing revealed the most efficient methods for industrial mushroom cultivation. The aerobic fermentation in the upper layer is preferable if using long term stored material. The oyster mushroom strain HK-35 was used for testing. An increase in biological efficiency with 37% was found for aerobic fermentation in comparison with stream processing. From evaluation of temperature influence during pasteurization phase, the biological efficiency increased with 11% for tested temperature treatment at 74±3°С in comparison to the standard at 63±3°С.<p>Konferensen ställdes in: Wood damaging fungi 2016 12-14 sept 2016 i Zvolen Kralova i Slovakien.
