- Evaluation of nonconventional potential of agro-waste for low-cost mushroom production:
1. Chemical analysis: elemental content, pH, ash, organic C and N
2. Vibrational spectroscopy: FT-IR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, SERS spectroscopy
3. Mycelial growth on plate
4. Mushroom growth in climate chamber
- Fruiting bodies and the spent substrates exploitation:
1. Recovery of biomolecules by fruting bodies and spent substrates: chitin extraction.
2. Nanoparticles production and evaluation of the chitosan-based nanoparticles biological activity
4.Spent substrates converted into biogas
