Penicillium roqueforti is a common saprotrophic fungus in the genus Penicillium.Widespread in nature, it can be isolated from soil, decaying organic matter, and plants. The major industrial use of this fungus is the production of blue cheeses, flavouring agents, antifungals, polysaccharides, proteases, and other enzymes.
Deuterolysin (EC 3.4.24.39, Penicillium roqueforti protease II, microbial neutral proteinase II, acid metalloproteinase, neutral proteinase II, Penicillium roqueforti metalloproteinase) is an enzyme.
Penicillium carneum is a fungus species of the genus of Penicillium. [3] [1] [4] [5] Penicillium roqueforti var. carneum was reclassified to Penicillium carneum. [6]P. carneum was isolated from spoiled meat products, silage, rye bread, water, beer, cheese, mouldy barkers yeast and cork. [7]
Penicillium (/ ˌ p ɛ n ɪ ˈ s ɪ l i əm /) is a genus of ascomycetous fungi that is part of the mycobiome of many species and is of major importance in the natural environment, in food spoilage, and in food and drug production.
Roquefortine C is a mycotoxin that belongs to a class of naturally occurring 2,5-diketopiperazines [1] produced by various fungi, particularly species from the genus Penicillium. [2]
A Roquefort type culture P. roqueforti is used to create the blue marbled effect. It is left to mature at around 12–14 °C (54–57 °F) for three weeks, giving the blue mould time to grow. It is left to mature at around 12–14 °C (54–57 °F) for three weeks, giving the blue mould time to grow.
Although the rate of bio-removing oil was dependent on volume of oil, pH level of culture and co-culture incubation period, optimal conditions resulted in a 95.4% removal rate of oil waste by P. commune. The fungus could be a new source in industrial application with respect to biodegradation of oil wastes in the environment using biological means.
The odor of the fungus is similar to its close relative P. roqueforti. P. psychrosexualis produces cleistothecia (closed, spherical fruitbodies from which ascospores are released when its walls break or split) when grown between the relatively low temperatures of 9 and 15 °C (48 and 59 °F); no cleistothecia were observered when grown at 25 ...
