Hello Ken,
Many thanks for posting the research. I´ve downloaded it and will consume it this weekend.

Yes, you need a cellulase to extract glucose and there are many with those from Trichoderma reesei being the most common and most studied with the genome known (?). The glucose has many uses with ethanol being just one of them losing ~ half of the starting material
I was reading just yesterday about using white rot fungus in the form of mushrooms of the common button type as selective for lignin and leaving the cellulose and hemicellulose alone as part of a pulping scheme. The cellulose and maybe the hemicellulose can then be fermented to ethanol. (Another

Hello to every one
Very simple bio process using mushroom Pluretus can give substrate
for simultaneous saccharification(hydrolysis) and fermentation ,
this can lead to low alcohol content , but a simple solvent
extraction with Castor oil as outlined in
Hello Brian. This is most intriguing. Let me describe another sawdust expt. which I did in my kitchen. I first placed the sawdust in a clean wide mouthplastic feeding bottle, anchored it in a pot of water, and boiled for 30 min. with lid on to sterilise the sawdust. On cooling a small piece of
Now that you bring up this point about
yeast and fungi eating
sugar the same stuff needed to ferment, it occurs to me that these
fungi folks were unaware that I was trying to ferment the sawdust.
Their original plan as I recall was to help my friend who owns a small
sawmill to dispose of
I talked with a few folks last night about the home brewing of ethanol
from sawdust. I am happy to announce that these guys are working on a
found Oyster Mushroom mycelium that they are hopeful will break down
the cellulose in order to separate the lignin. If this experiment works
they may
I hope your friend isn't too adventurous. You might find him with more than his shoes off, skipping around and talking to the trees.

particularly the surfaces. There might be some folks out there who can biofacture the enzyme from the fungus.

Yep no
doubt about
it, but it might be a good idea for more of us to try a little "talking

trees". Let's see if Mother Nature
Hello Fred
thanks for the input, even if it does pop another bubble, dammit.
Mushrooms like the same sugars that yeasts like. So a lot of what you
are trying to get from the wood is what the fungi consumes.
I have cultured both yeasts and fungi and had to have completely
seperate laminar
Hi all,
I should have given more details about the processing. You have to grow the fungus separately and limit one of the nutrients. It produces good quantities of the peroxidase but it probably is not for those without a lab. I never got to the point of separating the peroxidase as I was
