- Lignocellulolytic and nutraceutical activity of Lenzites betulina grown in agave agro-industrial waste(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2024-06-14) Zarza Murillo, Gerardo; Ramírez Jiménez, Aurea Karina; mtyahinojosa, emipsanchez; Tec Caamal, Edgar Noé; Granados Arvizu, José Ángel; School of Engineering and Sciences; Campus Monterrey; Luzardo Ocampo, Iván AndrésThis study examines the lignocellulolytic and nutraceutical properties of Lenzites betulina cultivated on agave agro-industrial waste, specifically agave bagasse. White rot fungi, like L. betulina, are well-known for their ability to break down lignin enzymatically, making them valuable for converting waste into useful products through bioremediation. The research aims to investigate the potential of using agave bagasse as a substrate for growing edible mushrooms, focusing on optimizing the nitrogen content to promote the growth of L. betulina. By conducting experiments to determine the ideal nitrogen ratio for cultivating L. betulina, the study establishes a baseline for adjusting nitrogen levels in agave bagasse. The methodology section explains this process in detail, emphasizing the importance of achieving an optimal nitrogen ratio for the culture of L. betulina. The results help in understanding how agro-industrial waste can be recycled for sustainable practices in mushroom cultivation and bioremediation efforts. In essence, this research highlights the value of Lenzites betulina in breaking down lignocellulose and producing nutraceuticals when grown on agave agro-industrial waste. By investigating the enzymatic abilities of this white rot fungus and optimizing growth conditions, the study emphasizes the importance of using agricultural waste for sustainable biotechnological applications in waste management and creating value-added products.
