Identification of Substances Produced by Cercospora brachiata in Absence of Light and Evaluation of Antibacterial Activity. J Fungi (Basel) 2021; 7:jof7090680.

Abstract
Cercospora brachiata is a phytopathogenic fungus. To know more about the metabolites produced by this fungus, the objective of this work was to identify, isolate and characterize substances present in extracts of the growth broth and mycelium, using gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). It was also objective to evaluate the antibacterial activity of the extracts. Among the compounds identified, fatty acids, esters, and steroids can be highlighted. The main compounds identified are 9-hexadecenoic, hexadecenoic, oleic, octadecanoic, lauric, myristic, palmitic, doceno-13-enoic, stearic, linoleic, and nonadecanoic acids present in almost all extracts. For the antibacterial activity, the broth microdilution method was used. The ethyl acetate extract of the mycelium presented inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against the bacterium Actinomyces naeslundii (100 μg mL-1) and Streptococcus sanguinis (200 μg mL-1). Finally, two steroids were isolated and identified in the hexane extract of mycelium: ergosta-6,22-dien-3β,5α,8α-triol and brassicasterol.

Fungi and Circular Economy: Pleurotus ostreatus Grown on a Substrate with Agricultural Waste of Lavender, and Its Promising Biochemical Profile. RECYCLING 2021.

Abstract
The increasing production of essential oils has generated a significant amount of vegetal waste that must be discarded, increasing costs for farmers. In this context, fungi, due to their ability to recycle lignocellulosic matter, may be used to turn this waste into new products, thus generating additional income for essential oil producers. The objectives of our work, within the framework of the European ALCOTRA project FINNOVER, were two-fold. The first was to cultivate Pleurotus ostreatus on solid waste of lavender used for essential oil production. The second was to provide, at the same time, new products that can increase the income of small and medium farms in the Ligurian Italian Riviera. This paper presents two pilot tests in which P. ostreatus was grown on substrates with five different concentrations of lavender waste, ranging from 0 to 100% (w/w). Basidiomata grown on all the substrates and their biochemical profiles were characterized using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. The biochemical analysis of mushrooms proved the presence of molecules with antioxidant and potential pharmacological properties, in particular in mushrooms grown on lavender-enriched substrates. The results open the possibility of producing mushrooms classified as a novel food. Furthermore, the results encourage further experiments aimed at investigating how different substrates positively affect the metabolomics of mushrooms.

Abstract
The production of γ-linolenic acid (GLA) by the fungus Cunninghamella elegans CFR C07 in submerged fermentation was studied. Culture parameters such as carbon source and incubation time were optimized. Four different extraction methods using solvents with acid washed sand, glass beads, lyophilization and Soxhlet extraction were evaluated for improved extraction of lipids from the fungal biomass after fermentation. The GLA production was initially optimized in 250-mL flask and the process was demonstrated in a 3-litre fermentor. The maximum GLA production was 882 mg/L in shake flask culture and 733 mg/L in the fermentor. The study shows that Cunninghamella elegans CFR C07 is a potent organism for the production of GLA under submerged conditions.

Abstract
Marine ecosystems cover more than 70% of the globe’s surface. These habitats are occupied by a great diversity of marine organisms that produce highly structural diverse metabolites as a defense mechanism. In the last decades, these metabolites have been extracted and isolated in order to test them in different bioassays and assess their potential to fight human diseases. Since traditional extraction techniques are both solvent- and time-consuming, this review emphasizes alternative extraction techniques, such as supercritical fluid extraction, pressurized solvent extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, pulsed electric field-assisted extraction, enzyme-assisted extraction, and extraction with switchable solvents and ionic liquids, applied in the search for marine compounds. Only studies published in the 21st century are considered.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the effect of organic nitrogen on lipogenesis during growth of Cunninghamella echinulata on tomato waste hydrolysate (TWH) media. METHODS AND RESULTS Cunninghamella echinulata grown on a TWH medium rapidly took up glucose and produced large amounts of lipids. However, when some quantities of the organic nitrogen were removed from TWH (by acid followed by alkaline precipitation of proteins) the uptake of glucose was dramatically reduced and large quantities of fungal biomass having low lipid content were produced. Nevertheless, when glycerol was used as carbon source instead of glucose, the uptake rate as well as the biomass production and the lipid accumulation processes were unaffected by the TWH organic nitrogen removal. Finally, when the fungus was grown on a glucose supplemented TWH medium that contained no assimilable organic nitrogen (after further precipitation of proteins with methanol), the produced biomass contained non-negligible quantities of lipids, although glucose uptake remained low. Lipid analysis showed that the produced lipids comprised mainly of neutral lipids, which were preferentially consumed during lipid turnover. Lipid production on the original TWH medium having glucose as carbon source was 0.48 g of lipid per gram of dry biomass, corresponding to 8.7 g of lipid per litre of growth medium. The produced lipids contained 11.7%gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), hence the GLA yield was more than 1 g l(-1). CONCLUSIONS Organic nitrogen compounds found in TWH favour glucose (but not glycerol) uptake and lipid accumulation in C. echinulata. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Agro-industrial wastes containing organic nitrogen, such as tomato waste, are produced in vast amounts causing severe environmental problems. These wastes could be used as fermentation feedstock to produce microbial lipids.

Abstract
A quantitative method for the one-step esterification and determination of absolute amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids in biotechnologically produced fungal mycelia is proposed. A system of two internal standards was used to quantify the total fatty acid content of the samples by gas chromatography. The degree of methylation of the analyzed fatty acids was calculated using the internal standards, and subsequently this quotient was used to validate the derivatization and extraction reactions. By utilizing this degree of methylation, the corrected amounts of the various fatty acids in the sample can be calculated.

Abstract
Growing interest in polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) applications in various fields coupled with their significance in health and dietary requirements has focused attention on the provision of suitable sources of these compounds. Isolation of highly efficient oleaginous microorganisms has led to the development of fermentation technologies as an alternative to agricultural and animal processes. Particularly active in PUFA synthesis are the Zygomycetes fungi and certain microalgae. Emphasis is placed on increasing the product value by employing new biotechnological strategies (e.g. mutation techniques, molecular engineering and biotransformations) which allow the regulation of microbial PUFA formation with satisfactory yield in order to be competitive with other sources. Comparative successes in fungal PUFA production demonstrate microbial potential to synthesize high-value oils and provide the main stimulus for their applications.
