Pleurotus ostreatus cultivation : physico-chemical characteristics of a robust pre-blocks oyster mushroom substrate with absorptive starch binders

An alternative way of preparing a newly robust and low fragility of the Pleurotus ostreatus (oyster mushroom) cultivation media is needed as this major problem occurred during harvesting and recyclability. Thus, the cultivation of P. ostreatus mushroom in the form of robust blocks bound together wit...
