Cultivation of the medicinal mushroom G. lucidum leaves a residual substrate with a matrix that is bound by the mycelium net and presents the necessary mechanical properties to be cut and hollowed. This material was used ...

In this study, pyrolysis of residual biomass from the agro-alimentary industry of Argentina was investigated. The studied biomasses were rice husk, peanut shell and wheat straw. The effect of pyrolysis temperatura over ...

Naringin, considered as the main bitter component of grapefruit, requires the use of enzymes to reduce the level of this substance during juice processing. For this reason, it has been the focus of many studies. In this ...

Ganoderma lucidum, a mushroom with medicinal properties, can grow on diverse lignocellulosic substrates. Substrate enrichment with additives has been used as a strategy to increase mushroom productivity. In this study, we ...

Nematodes of the genus Meloidogyne are one of the major limiting factors in tomato production and a challenging problem in organic systems. This study aimed to investigate the effect of agro-industrial wastes, their forms ...

Solid-state fermentation was evaluated at the pilot-scale for the bioconversion and valorization of rice husks and straw (RSH), or sunflower seed hulls (SSH), into medicinal mushrooms and crude extracts, with laccase ...

Rice husk is a fairly abundant agro-industrial waste in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, hence the same has been suggested and studied to be used as in lignocellulosic hydrolysis to produce fermentable sugars material. ...
