摘要: Apparatus and methods to harvest biopolymer material, such as a mycological material comprising mycelia. The mycelia products that are harvested can be used in the food industry (for example, as an animal-based meat-substitute) and in other industries, such as textiles, packaging, and others. The present invention provides mycelial harvesting methods and systems that are repeatable and energy efficient, while providing high quality and quantity mycelium-based products.

摘要: This application relates to a method for growing aerial mycelium with a regular growth pattern and products of aerial mycelium biopolymers with regular growth patterns. For example, a regular growth pattern can include a homogeneous growth topology or a geometrically regular pattern of bulbous forms. As further examples, the method for affecting growth topology can include controlling environmental conditions or using a topology adjustment layer.

摘要: Apparatus and processes to grow a biomaterial made of aerial mycelium by sensing and controlling airborne mist concentration, regardless of relative humidity. A growth matrix comprising a growth medium and a fungus, is grown under controlled environmental conditions to produce a mycelium product. To control growth conditions precisely and efficiently, airborne mist is electronically detected using one or more sensors, configured to measure airborne mist concentration visually, optically, chemically, electromagnetically, or by laser, ultrasonically, with radar, or other means. Electronic detection of airborne mist using one or more sensors generates a signal that is transmitted to a processor that can either maintain, increase, or decrease airborne mist concentration in a growth environment. The present invention provides processes of growing mycelium that are repeatable and resource efficient, while providing high quality and quantity mycelium-based products.

摘要: This application relates generally to aerial mycelium and methods of making aerial mycelium suitable for use as a food or textile product or ingredient. Such a food product or ingredient can include edible aerial mycelium having a texture that is analogous to a whole-muscle meat product, such as for example mycelium-based bacon. Such a textile product or ingredient can be used in the manufacture of mycelium-based textile products, leather-like materials, petroleum-based product alternatives, or foams.
