Quantification of fungal biomass in mycelium composites made from diverse biogenic side streams

Table 1 Substrates with corresponding water contents and each fungus inoculated for composite production

Substrate	Water content in %	Inoculated with
Substrate	Water content in %	GS	PP	TV
Apple pomace (AP)	65	X
Beech sawdust (B)	67	X	X	X
Cotton fibers (CF)	67	X
Digested biogas substrate (DBS)	71	X
Green waste (GW)	67	X	X	X
Paper sludge (PS)	55	X	X	X
Spent brewer’s grains (SBG)	67 and 80	X	X	X

The number of biological replicates was n = 5 for each combination except P. pulmonarius on paper sludge and sugar beet pulp (n = 4) and P. pulmonarius and T. versicolor on spent brewer’s grains with 80% water content (n = 3)
