Microwave treatment of vegetable substrates for wood-destroying mushrooms

Journal Title: Екологічні науки - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 1

Abstract

The efficiency of microwave heating of a plant substrate intended for the cultivation of wood-destroying fungi is studied. The results of experimental studies on wheat straw, previously soaked or initially dry, are presented. The regimes under which microwave treatment leads to the inhibition of pathogenic microflora and to the growth of cultivated oyster mushroom are determined. An optimal algorithm for microwave preparation of the substrate has been established, the use of which can significantly reduce energy costs. It is claimed that the microwave method of substrate treatment has significant advantages in comparison with traditional technologies of pasteurization and sterilization.
