    摘要: The process of making a mineralized mycelium scaffolding requires obtaining a scaffold of fungal biopolymer having a network of interconnected mycelia cells, functionalizing the biopolymer to create precursor sites and thereafter mineralizing the scaffold with one of silicates, apatites and carbonates. The mineralized mycelium scaffolding may be used for medical applications in place of mineralized collagen membranes and collagen/hydroxyapatite composite scaffolds.

    摘要: Several types of non-agricultural lignocellulosic waste media are disclosed for the growth of mycological biopolymers. The growth medium is comprised of a substrate with a composition of appropriate Carbon, Nitrogen and mineral components including but not limited to lipids, proteins, and other inherent nutrition requisite for mycelial growth. Specific examples are (1) a lignocellulosic material, (2) a mineral based material, (3) a non-toxic, organic or inorganic, non-lignocellulosic material, (4) a synthetically sourced and produced material, (5) a whole tree (flourized), and (6) an agar media.
