Millow—a Swedish startup producing minimally processed meat substitutes from oats and mycelium—has commissioned its first ...

Organic residues from regional agricultural and forestry activities are used as the substrate for the fungal cultures. In ...

Given the right substrate, such as wood chips, mycelium fibers will digest and bind the material together to form a dense and spongy mass; to the naked eye, it looks like a slimy white rubber.

Mycelium leather is produced by growing the fungus as a biological tissue or mat on top of a liquid or solid substrate, or as fungal biomass in submerged liquid fermentation. Solid-state ...

If all living organisms on Earth evolved from a single cell 3.5 billion years ago, it stands to reason that they’re a lot alike. And, scientists have noted that fungi are characteristically ...

The lumpy blocks are spent substrate, the living material left over after growing mushrooms. Composed of sawdust and soy pellets woven through with mycelium—the thread-like aspect of the fungus from ...

A skin fashioned from fungal mycelium—the network of filaments that absorb organic matter and nutrients to nourish mushrooms—can be used as a substrate for electronic devices. The discovery ...

Manipulating the conditions of growth, including through the use of heat and sunlight, or altering the substrate, affects mycelium development. Photograph by Calvin Chang As mycelium technology is ...

When mycelium grows on waste, the structure grows out and down. The hemp hurd substrate and mycelium are mixed in molds to form large sheets. Harvesting mycelium (Credit: Ecovative) In addition to ...

For their new project, the PLP Labs team first 3D-printed a wood formwork and packed it with a substrate injected with mycelium. As the mycelium colonized the substrate, it created a dense but ...

You’ll get to grow your own mycelium art piece to take home – starting from a grow bag and mycelium substrate to sculpting mycelium with a mold.
