Bachground: Toxic plants are an important reason for poisoning. The responsible plants are variable in different geographic spots. Some areas such as Lorestan province have more variety in herbal plants because of geographic condition. Because of high poisoning incidence with toxic plants and mushroom, we assessed the incidence of poisoning with mushroom and toxic plants (Tattore and Ricinus ...

With the industrialization, industrial by-products are produced in large quantities and creates nuisance to natural habitats. The disposal of these wastes like fly ash, marble powder, construction demolition (C&D) waste, brick agricultural etc. has become potential threat ecosystem need some real solutions. direct such into open land or water bodies causes circumambient pollution. One solut...

Cultivation of edible fungi (mushrooms) is a useful method for bio-conservation in the agriculture industry. For better production mushrooms, we used agricultural waste material as substrate cultivation mushrooms. After mushroom harvesting, these substrates are available an excellent source soil conditioner. In this study, sawdust simbal tree (Bombax ceiba L.), office scrap paper, and poultry m...

abstract edible white button mushroom is a secondary decomposer and the activity of other micro-organisms is necessary to decompose the raw compounds for its growth. actinomycetes bacteria due to their ability to decompose the compound molecules such as cellulose, lingo-cellulose and lignin, play an important role in the composting process for the mushroom. bacterial biomass of actinomycetes co...

Oyster mushroom were cultivated in controlled environment using different agricultural and forest waste. Experiment conducted six treatments viz. S1 (Red gram straw) S2 (Wheat Straw) S3 (Fallen leaf of Gum arabic tree + Custard apple+ Teak), S4 (Rice bran) S5, (Soybean S6, Palash Teak). The average yield Mushroom produced on each bed was noted. It is observed that the dry weight substrate S6 Te...

In Ireland, conversion of biodegradable farm wastes such as pig manure spent mushroom compost and poultry litter wastes to pelletised fertilisers is a desirable option for farmers. In this paper, results obtained from the composting of pig waste solids (20% w/w) blended with other locally available biodegradable wastes comprising poultry litter (26% w/w), spent mushroom compost (26% w/w), cocoa...

Mushroom polysaccharides are edible polymers that have numerous reported biological functions; the most common effects are attributed to β-glucans. In recent years, it became apparent that the less abundant α-glucans also possess potent effects in various health conditions. Here we explore several Pleurotus species for their total, β and α-glucan content. Pleurotus eryngii was found to have the...

Modern food systems incur many environmental impacts, which can be mitigated by the application of circular economy principles, such as closing material and energy loops upcycling waste products. Mushroom farming provides a relevant case in this direction because organic used for substrate an input cultivation process, produces valuable outputs edible foodstuffs soil amendment. Few studies eval...
