Pleurotus djamor is an important oyster mushroom that has attracted much attention due to its high nutritional value and diverse therapeutic properties. However, quality standards of this species remain unexplored so far. For this purpose, microscopic features of powder such as physical characters, spore measurement, type of hyphae were examined and described. Physico-chemical parameters like organoleptic features and fluorescent behaviour against 16 reagents were also determined. In addition, an alcoholic extract was prepared using methanol as solvent to characterize the mushroom chemically and biologically. Preliminary mycochemical analysis indicated presence of major bioactive components in the following order of phenol> ascorbic acid> flavonoid> β-carotene> lycopene. To determine phenolic fingerprint of the extract, an HPLC profile was recorded. The chromatogram indicated existence of at least nine phenolic components in the extract. Moreover, antioxidant activity of the macrofungus was also evaluated using in vitro assays like DPPH radical scavenging activity (EC50 value 0.653 mg/ml) and total antioxidant capacity (16.67 µg AAE/mg of extract). In summary, the data as described in this study are significant towards future identification and authentication of genuine mushroom material establishing the pharmacognostic standards. Furthermore, results of antioxidant study indicate that the mature fruiting bodies could be valuable for defending radical induced ailments.

“…An effective strategy for reducing postprandial hyperglycaemia is by inhibition of pancreatic α-amylase and α-glucosidase, which delays the carbohydrate digestion and glucose absorption significantly (Tarling et al 2008). Antioxidant compounds also play a major role in the control of oxidative stress-related diseases including diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular diseases (Wu & Hansen 2008). *Corresponding author.…”

Two edible seaweeds, Sargassum polycystum and Sargassum wightii, were investigated for their antidiabetic potential using in vitro enzyme inhibitory assays. Among the various extracts, petroleum ether and ethyl acetate extracts of S. wightii showed significant inhibitory effects against α-amylase (IC 50 378.3 μg/ml) and α-glucosidase (IC 50 314.8 μg/ml). Methanol extract of S. wightii showed the highest inhibition against dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) (IC 50 38.27 μg/ml) and moderate antioxidant activity was observed in acetone extract of S. wightii (44%). Similarly, ethyl acetate extract of S. polycystum showed the highest inhibition against α-amylase (IC 50 438.5 μg/ml) and methanol extract of S. polycystum showed maximum inhibition against α-glucosidase (IC 50 289.7 μg/ml) and DPP-IV (36.94 μg/ml). The antioxidant activity was poor (22%). The extracts were investigated for in vitro cytotoxicity, DNA fragmentation in macrophages and haemolytic activity against erythrocytes, but no notable toxicity was observed with any of the tested extracts. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry revealed the presence of the antidiabetic compound fucosterol and other major bioactive compounds, giving an insight into the antidiabetic and antioxidant properties of these algae. This study reveals the possible mechanisms of antidiabetic action in vitro, and these two seaweeds may also have an antidiabetic action in vivo.

“…Phenolic compounds have antioxidant properties because of their ability to act as a reducing agent, hydrogen ion donor, and anti radical agent. Phenolic compounds also acts as a metal chelator that protects metal catalytic function in radical initiation process (Wu & Hansen, 2008).…”

Marine algae contains bioactive secondary metabolites that have potential to be developed as antioxidant. The aims of this research were to investigate antioxidant activity and total phenolic compound of marine algae collected from Binuangeun Beach, Banten and to characterize antioxidant compounds from selected algae species. Antioxidant activity was determined by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) assay and Ferric Ion Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) Assay, while total phenolic content was estimated by Folin-Ciocalteau method. Isolation of bioactive antioxidant compound was performed using SiO 2 column chromatography and preparative high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The antioxidan activity evaluation was conducted to methanol extracts from 20 species (7 Chlorophyta, 9 Phaeophyta and 4 Rhodophyta). Results showed that Padina australis extract was found to be the most active. The major bioactive antioxidant compound was identified as fucoxanthin and a polar compound that was suspected as phenolic compound. The extracts of P. australis presented the highest phenolic content (58.59 mg GAE/g). A significant correlation between antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content was found, indicating that phenolic compounds are the major contributors to the antioxidant properties of P. australis.
