Abstract
During this study, ethanol extracts of four edible mushrooms i.e., Macrocybe gigantea, Podaxis pistillaris, Lentinus tigrinus, and Pleurotus cystidiosus were prepared and investigated by TFC, TPC, FRAP, ABTS and DPPH for their antioxidant potential. The extracts were also used to check the oxidative stabilization of sunflower oil for a period of 45 d using standard methods i.e., peroxide value, free fatty acid contents and iodine value. M. gigantea extract showed the maximum flavonoids and phenolic contents and exhibited the maximum antioxidant potential among the four edible mushrooms. BHA was observed to have maximum oil stabilization potential followed by the ethanol extract of M. gigantea of 1000 ppm concentration, BHT and extract of 1000 ppm concentration of P. pistillaris. Thus, it is concluded from this study that ethanolic extracts of these mushrooms can be used as a healthy supplement to stabilize oil by replacing synthetic antioxidants that are harmful to humans.
期刊介绍:
The rapid growth of interest in medicinal mushrooms research is matched by the large number of disparate groups that currently publish in a wide range of publications. The International Journal of Medicinal Mushrooms is the one source of information that will draw together all aspects of this exciting and expanding field - a source that will keep you up to date with the latest issues and practice. The International Journal of Medicinal Mushrooms published original research articles and critical reviews on a broad range of subjects pertaining to medicinal mushrooms, including systematics, nomenclature, taxonomy, morphology, medicinal value, biotechnology, and much more.
