The Feasibility of Utilizing Cultured <i>Cordyceps militaris</i> Residues in Cosmetics: Biological Activity Assessment of Their Crude Extracts
Solid-based residues (SBRs) left from harvesting the fruiting bodies of cultured <i>Cordyceps</i> mushrooms are a challenge to sustainability. Therefore, in this study, the SBRs from the cultivation of <i>Cordyceps militaris</i> (<i>C. militaris</i>) via solid-sta...

The SBRs obtained from cultivation with solid media containing defatted rice bran mixed with barley, white rice, Riceberry rice, and wheat were named SBR-B, SBR-R, SBR-Rb, and SRB-W, respectively.
