C.; wherein the complex composition including 10%-15% by weight of a turkey tail mushroom extract and 10%-15% by weight of a chitosan; in which mixing ingredients consisting of a carboxymethyl cellulose solution 0.375%, a alginate solution 0.375%, a potassium citrate solution, a AgNO.sub.3 solution 0.37%, a Cu(NO.sub.3).sub.2 solution 0.723%, a Zn(NO.sub.3).sub.2 solution 3.085%, Co(NO.sub.3).sub.2 solution 0.746%, a Fe(NO.sub.3).sub.3 solution 2.5%, a glycerin ingredient, a vitamin E, a tartrazine ingredient 1%, a K.sub.2HPO.sub.4 solution 15%, a mixture extracts/essential oils, and an other ingredient.

Methods of producing, compositions containing, and methods for administering curcumin, and particularly extracts obtained from a laser irradiated rhizome of Curcuma longa having an enhanced antimicrobial activity. An ethanolic extract of the laser irradiated rhizome of Curcuma longa exhibits increased levels of bisdemethoxycurcumin and curcumin, as well as of alpha-curcumene, (-)-zingiberene, caryophyllene, and beta sesquiphellandrene as compared to those of an ethanolic extract from a Curcuma longa rhizome not irradiated by a laser.

The present invention discloses a biodegradable and biocompatible pharmaceutical composition comprising silk Sericin, sophorolipid, a gelling or thickening agent and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients for faster wound healing and limit scarring.

Provided is a method of treating a post-harvest plant after harvest, the method including: irradiating a harvested plant with light having a peak wavelength in a wavelength range from 270 to 290 nm and/or light having a peak wavelength in a wavelength range from 370 to 400 nm at an irradiance effective to increase an amount of at least one rare cannabinoid compound and/or at least one terpene compound in the harvested plant, wherein an irradiance of light of all wavelengths in a wavelength range from 410 to 700 nm received by the harvested plant during the irradiation is less than 20% of the irradiance of the light having a peak wavelength in the wavelength range from 270 to 290 nm and/or less than 20% of the irradiance of the light having a peak wavelength in the wavelength range from 370 to 400 nm.

A cannabis composition includes a cannabis material and an additive solution. Cannabis material includes flowers, sugar leaves, and fan leaves from a cannabis plant, and can be configured to be finely cut or coarsely cut. An additive solution includes honey and a cannabis extract. Further disclosed is a method of manufacture of a cannabis composition, including a method for allowing a cannabis composition to ferment and a method of heating a cannabis composition.

The invention is a method for enhanced growth of mycelium in culture including the key steps of seed blend choice from among corn, rice, quinoa, chia, canihua, cumin and flax seed, germinating the seed blend prior to inoculating the mycelium starter, and conducting the mushroom cultivation with ORP enhanced water and particular transmissions of sound and particularly colored light. Mushrooms grown by such a method not only mature in 13-15 days rather than 21 days, but have an enhanced nutritional and medicinal profile along with absence of unwanted organism contaminants whose unwanted overgrowth occurs during days 16-21 (or days 16-28) of typical mushroom culture.

The present invention is direct to the direct expression of siRNA molecules in yeast, which can be packaged into extracellular vesicles (EVs) and delivered to a target organism causing the downregulation of a select gene.

Provided are: a production method for salt-free miso, in which steamed soy beans and koji are pressurized, heated, and fermented; salt-free miso obtained by said production method; and a hepatic function improvement agent and a hypertension improvement agent that contain said salt-free miso as an effective component thereof.
