Ergosterol Content and Protein Profile of Medicinal Mushroom | Anti-tumor and Anti-angiogenic Ergosterols from Ganoderma Mushroom 

 Ergosterol ((22E)-ergosta-5,7,22-trien-3 beta -ol) is the main sterol in eumycotic fungi and yeasts, and is accompanied by other sterols not normally abundant in higher plants including zymosterol (5 beta-cholesta-8,24-dien-3 beta-ol).

It is named for ergot, a common name for the members of the fungal genus Claviceps from which 21 ergosterol was first isolated. It is a component of yeast and fungal cell membranes, serving the same function cholesterol serves in animal cells.

Like cholesterol and in contrast to the plant sterols, it is synthesized via lanosterol as the key intermediate.

It has been postulated to be strongly associated with living cytoplasmic fungi in the soil. However, ergosterol is not produced by all fungi and the ergosterol concentrations are known to vary between the same species depending on the physiological state of the fungus.

Ergosterol activates expression of a number of defense genes and increases the resistance of plants against the pathogens. Ergosterol is present in two forms, as free ergosterol and esterified ergosterol, and the relative abundances of free to esterified ergosterol are different among various species.

The ergosterol content has been widely used as an estimate of fungal biomass in various environments because a strong correlation has been found between ergosterol content and fungal dry mass.

Ergosterol has been detected in other Ganoderma species. The compound has been used to detect fungal invasion in grain and a variety of other substrates.

What is the major problems in mushroom cultivation?

By BIO RESEARCH
Problems and solutions in the cultivation of the mushroom including: a) Mycelium fails to form Improper initiation strategy.  Solutions : consult parameter of growth. Alter moisture, temperature, light, carbon dioxide, etc.  Note : If the substrate is too moist, decrease moisture b) Chlorinated or contaminated water.  Solutions :  Use activated charcoal water filters to eliminate chemical contaminants or any other ways of simple or appropriate technology. c) Bad substrate.  Solutions : Check substrate. Spread the substrate and remix the substrate, package again, make sure all raw materials are good and fresh.   Note : It is necessary to pasteurize immediately after bagging otherwise fermentation gas will slow down the rate of growth of mycelium or stop mycelium growth. d) Bad pasteurization.  Solutions : Check method of pasteurization. Release all air and make sure there is continuous steam before starting pasteurization for a period of 3h. e) The substrate in the bag is too hot when i

Oyster mushroom vs button mushroom nutrition | Nutritional comparison between oyster and button mushrooms

By BIO RESEARCH
Oyster mushrooms are beloved the world over for their delicate texture and mild, savory flavor.  Oyster mushrooms are more expensive than white button mushrooms but less so than rarer mushrooms like morels, and take little prep since they can be used whole or chopped.                                Oyster: “These are low in calories and rich in fiber, protein, selenium [which may help prevent cancer], niacin [aka, vitamin B3] and riboflavin [aka, vitamin B2].Oyster mushrooms also contain an active compound called benzaldehyde, which has potent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, research shows oyster mushrooms may significantly reduce blood glucose levels. They have also been shown to help lower cholesterol levels.”    White Button: White button mushrooms represent 90 percent of the total mushrooms consumed. “They’re a good source of potassium, B vitamins, calcium, phosphorus [which supports bone and teeth health] and iron. They also contain selenium, a trace
