They are sustainable and healthy—filamentous edible fungi that are fed with, for example, oats. The latest addition to the world-leading research at the Swedish Center for Resource Recovery is Neda Rousta's doctoral thesis on filamentous fungi with the potential to transform our food systems.
Her work delves into various aspects, ranging from optimizing the production of fungal biomass using different substrates to investigating the synthesis of the substance L-carnitine by these fungi. Additionally, she explored the possibility of using fungal biomass to create sustainable and nutritious food products, such as fungi burger patties.In her doctoral thesis, Rousta shows the potential of filamentous fungi as a sustainable and healthy food source.
In addition, her work demonstrated the fungi's ability to synthesize bioactive substances such as L-carnitine, where Aspergillus oryzae outperformed other . Rousta was pleasantly surprised by the adaptability, productivity, and nutritious properties of the filamentous fungi.The University of Borås has been conducting world-leading research on fungi for more than 20 years in the area of Resource Recovery. The research relates to issues such as the environmental sustainability of our food systems and the promotion of human health.
