Fungal Biology and Applications

Enzymatic hydrolysis of the golden oyster mushroom (Pleurotus citrinopileatus) generated a new bacterial cellulose (BC). The sugar syrup obtained from the hydrolysis of mushroom powder by commercial enzymes gave maximum total soluble solids (TSS) content at 8.83 ± 0.29°Brix, while 8.82 ± 0.06 mg GAE/g substrate of total phenolic content (TPC) was obtained when using initial substrate and enzyme concentrations at 125 g/L and 5.0%, respectively. Glutamic acid, aspartic acid, alanine and valine were determined as the main amino acids found in P. citrinopileatus hydrolysis at 524.74 ± 0.03, 247.09 ± 0.04, 176.82 ± 0.07 and 174.57 ± 0.01 mg/100 g sample, respectively. Thin-layer chromatography revealed that the obtained sugar syrup was glucose. The hydrolyzed mushroom fermented with Komagataeibacter xylinus AGR 60 at 30 ± 2 °C for 9 days produced optimal conditions at 4.0°Brix of the initial mushroom syrup and 12.0% (v/v) of the starter culture. Maximum BC thickness was 0.88 ± 0.03 cm with 7.90 ± 0.07 g dry weight, equivalent to 39.50 ± 0.35 g/L and 4.39 ± 0.04 g/L/day for BC production (P) and BC production rate (Rp), respectively. The obtained BC was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering and wide-angle X-ray diffraction. These showed the structure and functional properties as a natural source of fiber from the fermentation of a novel substrate.
