| dc.description.abstract | Lentinus tigrinus is one of the promising mushrooms species because of its nutritional value, availability and versality. This study evaluated the mycelial growth performance of select root crop-based solid and liquid culture media, and antioxidant properties. The DPPH radical scavenging activity and the total phenolic content of the mycelia grwon in the select root crop-based liquid media were investigated. Mycelia grwon on sweet potato decoction gulaman recorded the highest mycelial diamater with a mean of 64.47 mm, which is satistically comparable to cassava and ube decoction gulaman. However, 500 g/L, concentration of media registered the highest mycelial diameter with a mean of 57.16 mm, but not significantly different to 250 g/L. In liquid culture, the heaviest mycelial biomass (0.12 g) and maximum volume loss (14.56 mL) were observed in ube decoction which is statistically comparable to sweet potato decoction. Among the concentrations, 500 g/L exhibited the highest mycelial dry weight with a mean of 0.13g. Moreover, extract of mycelia in sweet decoction showed the highest radical scavenging activity of 30.36% and total phenolic content of 22.96 mg GAE/g sample. | |
