Large-Scale Batch (1 m 2 ) Production and Mechanical Assessment of Mushroom Mycelium Mats
https://doi.org/10.1007/s11814-025-00522-0
Abstract
The development of sustainable leather materials from mushroom mycelium is considered due to ethical issues in animal
leather production and environmental pollution problems. It has been confi rmed that mushroom mycelium can form a biofi
lm, the so-called mycelium mat, resulting in a leather-like texture. Therefore, large-scale production of mycelium mats
can be essential in future applications in the leather and fashion industry. In this study, for the production of the mycelium
mat, environmental factors, including light, temperature, humidity, and CO 2 levels, are to be controlled, and the height of
the solid medium fi lled in the culture tray was also examined. Batch-wise large-scale production was performed on a large
culture tray (1 m 2 ), and suitable culturing conditions for producing mycelium mats were suggested as follows: 27–28
