Pilze zur wertsteigernden Holzfunktionalisierung

Abstract

AbstractWood decay fungi play an important role as recyclers of organic matter in the nutrient cycle. The risks of wood degradation by fungi are widely discussed, but little attention is given to the opportunity to apply wood decay fungi for wood functionalization, modification and/or wood protection. For this purpose, the mycelium (fungal network), spores, enzymes and polymers from various types of wood decay fungi are used.
