Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of mycelium, and more particularly to a mycelium culture medium and its preparation method, mycelium, its culture method and apparatus. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing global promotion of the circular economy, mycelium, due to its inherent advantages of being purely natural and biodegradable, is being applied to a growing number of different material fields. Mycelium can utilize agricultural waste (sugarcane bagasse, rice husks, corn stalks, etc.) as its primary nutrient source, growing into mycelial tissue while simultaneously degrading the agricultural waste. Through the addition of components to the culture medium and specific cultivation methods, novel bio-based materials that meet the standards for leather, packaging, furniture, and building materials can be obtained. Mycelial materials are economically low-cost, biodegradable, and recyclable, and hold promise as a green alternative to a large number of petroleum-based materials.
[0003] When mycelia are cultured using ordinary culture media, their morphology is not fixed during growth, and their growth state is difficult to control. They exhibit various forms, including spherical, flocculent, and filamentous shapes. After growth, the surface of the mycelium is uneven, easily resulting in a large number of fruiting bodies that cannot form processable raw materials. Furthermore, mature mycelia generally lack tensile strength, making them fragile and brittle, which cannot meet the material requirements of applications such as leather or others. Therefore, providing a suitable mycelium culture medium is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0067] This application provides a mycelial culture medium and its preparation method, as well as mycelium, its culture method and apparatus. The following will describe this application in detail with reference to specific embodiments.

[0098] In one specific embodiment, corn steep liquor and Acacia mangium tannin were added to deionized water, heated to 60°C, and stirred at 60°C for 30 minutes to mix evenly. Sodium hydroxide was added to adjust the pH to 6.0 to obtain the first mixed solution.

[0102] The third aspect of this application provides a mycelium prepared by culturing using the mycelium culture medium as described above.
[0103] In some embodiments, the mycelium includes at least one of Ganoderma lucidum, Cordyceps militaris, and morel.
[0104] The fourth aspect of this application provides a method for culturing mycelium as described above, comprising:
[0105] The mycelium was inoculated onto a mycelium culture medium, and air was introduced to allow the growth of mycelial tissue.
[0106] Growth consists of multiple stages, including a first growth stage and a second growth stage. After the first growth stage ends, the second growth stage begins.
[0107] In the first growth stage, the air has a first humidity H1 and a first air intake Q1;
[0108] In the second growth stage, the air has a second humidity H2 and a second air inflow Q2;
[0109] Satisfying: H2≤H1, Q1 <Q2。
[0110] Understandably, the first growth stage is the initial stage of mycelial growth. By maintaining a low air intake and high air humidity, carbon dioxide can be rapidly accumulated in the mycelial culture medium, stimulating mycelial growth. The second growth stage is the middle and late stage of mycelial growth. By maintaining a high air intake and low air humidity, a carbon dioxide gradient can be formed in the mycelial culture medium, further promoting the upward growth of mycelium, thickening the mycelial skin tissue, and inhibiting the formation of fruiting bodies.
[0111] In some embodiments, the mycelium culture medium is placed in a culture box containing a mesh holder that is immersed in the mycelium culture medium, and the mycelium is inoculated onto the mycelium culture medium located above the tray.
[0112] It is understandable that inoculating the mycelium onto the mycelium culture medium located above the net holder allows most of the mycelial balls to be fixed on the surface of the mycelium culture medium. This facilitates the mycelium's absorption of a large amount of oxygen, accelerates mycelial growth and development, and, being fixed on the net holder, promotes the tight weaving of mycelial fibers.
[0113] In some embodiments, the inoculation amount of mycelium is 5% to 10%. That is, the volume ratio (v / v) of mycelium to mycelium culture medium is 5% to 10%; specifically, the inoculation amount of mycelium can be any one or any combination of two values from 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, and 10%.
[0114] In some implementations, during the first growth stage, the mycelium has a first growth temperature T1, and during the second growth stage, the mycelium has a second growth temperature T2, satisfying: T1≤T2.
[0115] It is understandable that maintaining a low growth temperature in the first growth stage and a slightly higher growth temperature in the second growth stage can accelerate mycelial growth and development.
[0116] In some implementations, the first growth temperature T1 satisfies the condition: 24℃ ≤ T1 ≤ 25℃. Specifically, the first growth temperature T1 can be any one of 24℃ and 25℃, or a range of any two of these values.
[0117] In some implementations, the second growth temperature T2 satisfies: 25℃ ≤ T2 ≤ 26℃. Specifically, the second growth temperature T2 can be any one of 25℃ and 26℃, or a range of any two of these values.
[0118] In some implementations, growth includes two or more stages.
[0119] In some implementations, after the growth process is complete, the following is also included:
[0120] The culture medium containing the mycelium tissue and remaining mycelium was recovered.
[0121] In some implementations, the first humidity H1 satisfies: 60% ≤ H1 ≤ 70%. Specifically, the first humidity H1 can be any one or a range of any two values from 60%, 61%, 62%, 63%, 64%, 65%, 66%, 67%, 68%, 69%, and 70%.
[0122] In some implementations, the second humidity H2 satisfies: 50% ≤ H2 ≤ 60%. Specifically, the second humidity H2 can be any one or a range of any two values from 50%, 51%, 52%, 53%, 54%, 55%, 55%, 57%, 58%, 59%, and 60%.
[0123] In some implementations, the first injection rate Q1 satisfies: 0.08 L / min ≤ Q1 ≤ 0.1 L / min. Specifically, the first injection rate Q1 can be any one value or a range of any two values selected from 0.08 L / min, 0.085 L / min, 0.09 L / min, 0.095 L / min, and 0.1 L / min.
[0124] In some implementations, the second injection rate Q2 satisfies: 0.25 L / min ≤ Q2 ≤ 0.3 L / min. Specifically, the second injection rate Q2 can be any one value or a range of any two values selected from 0.25 L / min, 0.26 L / min, 0.27 L / min, 0.28 L / min, 0.28 L / min, and 0.3 L / min.
[0125] In some implementations, the first growth stage has a first time t1, satisfying: 0 days ≤ t1 ≤ 3 days. Specifically, the first time t1 can be any one of 0 days, 1 day, 2 days, and 3 days, or a range of any two of these values.
[0126] In some implementations, the second growth stage has a second time t2, satisfying: 4 days ≤ t2 ≤ 10 days. Specifically, the second time t2 can be any one or a range of any two of the following: 4 days, 5 days, 6 days, 7 days, 8 days, 9 days, and 10 days.
[0127] A fourth aspect of this application provides an apparatus for implementing a method for culturing mycelium as described above, comprising:
[0128] Culture container 10, comprising:
[0129] The container body 1 has a receiving cavity 13; the container body 1 includes a bottom wall 11 and a side wall 12; the bottom wall 11 and the side wall 12 enclose the receiving cavity 13, and the receiving cavity 13 is used to place mycelial culture medium;
[0130] A ventilation component 20 is located on one side of the culture container 10 and communicates with the receiving cavity 13. The ventilation component 20 is used to vent air into the receiving cavity 13.
[0131] The temperature and humidity monitoring component 30 is located on one side of the culture container 10, spaced apart from the ventilation component 20, and communicates with the containment cavity 13. The temperature and humidity monitoring component 30 is used to monitor the temperature and humidity inside the containment cavity 13.
[0132] In some embodiments, the culture container 10 is a culture box.
[0133] In some implementations, the ventilation component 20 is a central fresh air system.
[0134] In some embodiments, the culture container 10 further includes:
[0135] The cover 2 is connected to the container body 1 and seals the receiving cavity 13;
[0136] The tray 3 is located inside the receiving cavity 13 and is connected to the bottom wall 11 for growing mycelial layer.
[0137] In some embodiments, the tray 3 has micropores, that is, the tray 3 is a mesh tray.

[0164] Test method:
[0165] (1) Tensile strength test: Set the test parameters of the constant rate elongation tester (strength tester): clamping distance: 75 mm, tensile rate: 300 mm / min; the center of the specimen is clamped in the tester, ensuring that the longitudinal centerline of the specimen passes through the centerline of the clamp and is perpendicular to both ends of the clamp. Start the tester and stretch the specimen until it breaks. Record the force value at fracture. The standard used is ASTM D5034-21, and the test results are shown in Table 2.
[0166] (2) Leather layer thickness test: Use a leather thickness gauge to measure the thickness at nine points evenly distributed on the four sides and center of the leather. Take the average value. Please refer to Table 2 for the test results.
[0167] (3) Calculation method of uniformity: Use a leather thickness gauge to measure the thickness of nine points evenly on the four sides and center of the skin, calculate the standard deviation and the average value, and divide the calculated standard deviation by the average value to obtain the coefficient of variation as the characterization of uniformity.
