This study suggests that Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide can increase the stability of starch to thermal mechanical shearing, decrease short-term retrogradation, and slow down flavor deterioration.

One Tremella fuciformis Berk. sample was found with 7.5 mg/kg toxoflavin and 3.2 mg/kg fervenulin. The study suggests that toxoflavin and fervenulin are acidic compounds that are easily degraded.

Endophytic fungi are organisms that spend most of their life cycle within plant tissues without causing any visible damage to the host plant. Many endophytes were found to secrete specialized metabolites and/or emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which may be biologically active and assist fungal survival inside the plant as well as benefit their hosts.
