The method according this invention, along with its optimally chosen steps, specific conditions, parameters such as temperature, duration, stirring, light, growth factors, etc. achieves both maximum volumetric productivity of the target substances and myconoside, as well as stable productivity of the plant in vitro cultures and is a reliable efficient 24/7 continuous system for production of NPs. Dependence on natural factors, limited availability and protection of HR rare wild plant populations are eliminated. The limitations posed by seasonality arid slow HR growth are also avoided by developing a renewable, ecologically method. The developed method provides alternative, renewable and sustainable sources of raw plant material necessary to obtain the target extract. The resulting extract standardized in myconoside is especially valuable with its protective action on human health and can successfully be used with its pharmacological, cosmetic effects as well as in functional foods.

Abstract: Techniques for defining a reference duration and one or more reference transmissions that are utilized for contention window update are provided to address these new features. An apparatus, such as a wireless device, determines a reference duration of a channel occupancy time (COT), the reference duration based at least in part on a subcarrier spacing (SCS) and based on reception of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission. The apparatus updates a contention window (CW) based at least in part on reception of the PDSCH transmission during the reference duration. For example, the apparatus may increase the CW when a negative acknowledgement (NACK) is received for the determined PDSCH in the COT and may assign CW with a predetermined minimum value (CW_min) when a positive acknowledgement (ACK) is received for the determined PDSCH.
