Fig. 2From: The mycelium of the Trametes versicolor (Turkey tail) mushroom and its fermented substrate each show potent and complementary immune activating properties in vitroTrametes versicolor (Tv) was used as an experimental model to isolate and compare the mycelium and its fermented substrate. a Diagram showing the origin of the three test products compared: Initial substrate (rice flour), fermented substrate, and Tv mycelium. b Photo of the three powders: Initial substrate (left) is plain rice flour prior to use as a substrate for growing the Tv mycelium. The fermented substrate (center) is the dried residual powder where the mycelium has been removed. The mycelium (right) is the collection of fungal hyphae, removed from the fermented substrate on which it was grownBack to article page
