Waste Bread Valorization Using Edible Filamentous Fungi

, 2017
The present study is the first of its kind to use industrial waste bread for ethanol and food-grade filamentous fungal biomass production, with an ‘integrated-biorefinery’ approach for the existing wheat-based ethanol facilities. Four different food-grade fungi such as Neurospora intermedia, Aspergillus oryzae, belonging to ascomycetes and Mucor ...

Cylindracin, a Cys‐rich protein expressed in the fruiting body of Cyclocybe cylindracea, inhibits growth of filamentous fungi but not yeasts or bacteria

FEBS Open Bio
Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of fungi and are important reproductive structures that produce and disseminate spores. The Pri3 gene was originally reported to be specifically expressed in the primordia (a precursor to the mature fruiting body) of the

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme papain, a cysteine endopeptidase complex from the latex of Carica papaya L.

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme is a cysteine endopeptidase complex, containing papain (EC 3.4.22.2), chymopapain (EC 3.4.22.6), caricain (EC 3.4.22.30) and glycyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.22.25), obtained from the latex of unripe Carica papaya L. by Enzyme Development Corporation. It is intended to be used in 13 food manufacturing processes.
