In recent years, kenaf has gained significant global attention as a more cost-effective, adaptable, and manageable alternative to other fibre crops. India China, with nearly 70% of the production, have emerged leading producers plants. While was traditionally valued for its paper it evolved into multipurpose crop diverse industrial applications over past two decades. Conventional soil-based cultivation methods require up six months plant maturity. However, in vitro propagation techniques...
Abstract Natural mycelial biomass (MB) and exopolysaccharides (EPS) of Malaysian tiger milk mushroom Lignosus rhinocerus are considered high-end components due to their high commercial potential value in drug discovery. This study aims evaluate the toxicity extracts’ generated a bioreactor using zebrafish embryo (ZFET) model assay as new therapy for treating asthma. Both MB EPS extracts, at concentrations 0.16–10 mg/mL, were tested ZFET early development effects on Zebrafish Embryos (ZE)...
The pellet morphology and diameter range (DR) of <i>Ganoderma lucidum</i> were observed in a repeated-batch fermentation (RBF) for the trio total production biomass, exopolysaccharide (EPS) endopolysaccharide (ENS). Two factors involved RBF; broth replacement ratio (BRR: 60%, 75% 90%) time point (BRTP: log, transition stationary phase) days. In RBF, 34.31 g/L biomass favoured small-compact pellets with DR 20.67 µm< d < 24.00 µm (75% BRR, day 11 BRTP). EPS 4.34 was prone to...
The depletion of fossil fuels and the emission greenhouse gases have increased demand for new sustainable energy sources, leading to growing interest in using fast-growing filamentous fungi as a source bioenergy. This study aimed optimize production exopolysaccharides (EPS) mycelial biomass (MB) from native medicinal mushroom, Lignosus rhinocerus, through submerged liquid fermentation. Using response surface methodology (RSM), it was found that glucose concentration speed agitation...
Abstract Natural mycelial biomass (MB) and exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced from bioreactor-grown Malaysian Tiger Milk Mushroom Lignosus rhinocerus are considered high-end components due to their high commercial potential value in drug discovery. Both MB (0.16-10 mg/mL) EPS extracts were tested for Zebrafish Embryo Toxicity (ZFET) early development effects on Embryos (ZE) during 24-120 h post-fertilization (HPF) order assess toxicity given application as a new therapy treating asthma....
The versatility of a well-known fibrous crop, Hibiscus cannabinus (kenaf) is still relatively new to many. Kenaf's potential applications, which can be extended even into critical industries such as pharmaceutical and food industries, have always been overshadowed by its traditionally grown fiber. Therefore, this study aimed venture the biotechnological approach in reaping benefits kenaf through plant cell suspension culture maximize production callus biomass (KCB) exopolysaccharide (EPS),...

Large-scale clonal banana production is required to supply current industry demand. Conventional tissue culture technique needs be improvised overcome the high-cost manufacturing and laborious work involved. Therefore, this study aimed develop an efficient protocol in by using temporary immersion bioreactor (TIB) technology which uses intermittent liquid nutrients. This evaluated optimum pathway for Musa acuminata cv. Berangan paradisiaca Tanduk propagation with application of TIB system. M....
