| dc.description.abstract | Lentinus squarrosulus, from the family Polyporaceae, is an edible wild musroom commonly found in the Philippines. In order to determine the biological activities of the mycelia and culture spent, the mycochemical composition, antioxidant activity, and cytotoxicity were assessed. The mycelial extract contains triterpenes, anthrones, tannins flavonoids, phenols, fatty acids, alkaloids and steroids. However, the culture spent contains essential oils, triterpenes, anthrones, tannins, flavonoids, phenols, fatty acids , alkaloids and steroids. Mycelial extract registered higher radical scavenging activity (52.76%) and total phenolic content (22.33mg GAE/g sample) than the corresponding culture spent extract. Cytotoxicity assay revealed that both extracts of L. squarrosulus are non-toxic. | |
