#Ganoderma lucidum grows a skin to cover its mycelium—its root-like part. The skin protects the mushroom from other #fungi and #bacteria. It is flexible, provideds good insulation and is able to withstand high temperatures. It works nearly as well as plastic substrates for #ComputerChips.
Using mushroom skin as a base for computer chips
A team of researchers at Johannes Kepler University has found that the skin of a certain kind of mushroom can be used as a biodegradable base for computer chips. In their paper published in the journal Science Advances, the group describes how well it worked and how easily it could be cleanly discarded after the chip was no longer useful.
