Chemical composition and biological activities of the Agaricus mushrooms

Abstract: Two species of Agaricus mushroom grown in Mongolia were analyzed for their element content. Biological activity and chemical components study of Agaricus, grown in the Mongolian flora has been investigated for the first time. The ethanol extracts of dried Agaricus sp. mushrooms were analyzed for antioxidant activity on 1,1-diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals and interferon-like activity. The ethanol extracts from Agaricus arvensis showed the most potent radical scavenging activity. The IC50 of A. silvat… Show more

“…This could be due to their capability to extract bioactive substances [83]. Apart from these two factors, geographical locations may also affect the bioactive properties of wild mushrooms which could be due to their differences in relation with growth conditions, genetic factors, geographical variations and analytical procedures [84,85,86]. …”
