Development of an innovative method of cultivating Japanese scleractinian (Lentinula edodes) and coneflower (Hericium erinaceus) mushrooms using hemp straw as a substrate, and development of technology for the production of medicinal mushroom extracts containing the full spectrum of active compounds.

Description

an innovative method for the production and processing of Japanese scleractinian (Lentinula edodes) and coneflower (Hericium erinaceus) medicinal mushrooms

Sector

A1.1Growing of non-perennial crops

Needs/ Problem statement

The vast majority of medicinal mushroom extracts are produced in China or based on raw material from Asian countries. The implementation of the project will allow to fill the market niche of the lack of medicinal mushroom extracts produced on the basis of material of domestic origin, meeting all standards related to quality and food safety, as well as containing the full range of bioactive compounds, the control of which begins at the stage of cultivation of the raw material.

Objective

The project will develop a technology for year-round cultivation of the above-mentioned species using hemp straw as a substrate, as well as a technology for dual extraction of medicinal mushrooms, which will be the basis for the production of extracts containing the maximum amount of biologically active compounds.
