“…In our study, the centesimal composition of Ab showed this mushroom is a good food option due to its high protein content, about 30%, being higher than the protein content noticed by Goyal et al (2006); (24.43% ± 0.10%). Furthermore, our mushroom had 14.35 g of beta‐glucans/100 g of dry mushroom, similar that found by Cebin et al (2018), 16.37 g of beta‐glucans/100 g of dry mushroom. The main polysaccharides present in mushrooms are the beta‐glucans, and they are directly related to the reduction of metabolic diseases and biomarkers related to immune function (Aoe, 2021).…”

“…Agaricus bisporus is a species of edible mushroom widely cultivated and used in cooking around the world. It is known since antiquity for its nutritional qualities and beneficial effects on health, due to its high‐quality protein content, high fiber content, vitamins, minerals, lectins, and also bioactive compounds, such as protein–polysaccharide complexes, β‐glucans, and polyphenols (Cebin et al, 2018). Furthermore, from a functional point of view, mushrooms are low in fat, and from a culinary perception, Ab is known for its meaty texture and earthy flavor (Ramos et al, 2019).…”

IntroductionLead (Pb) is a toxic pollutant, which can affect different tissues of the human body. The use of natural elements, as medicinal mushroom can reduce the toxic effects of Pb.ObjectiveWe evaluated, through preclinical tests, the oral co exposures to mushroom Agaricus bisporus (Ab) by gavage and Pb in drinking water, and the capability of Ab be a protective agent for both pregnant rats and their fetuses.MethodsFemale Wistar rats were divided into four groups (n = 5/group): Group I—Control; Group II—Ab 100 mg/kg; Group III—Pb 100 mg/L; Group IV—Ab +Pb −100 mg/kg +100 mg/L. Exposure was performed until the 19th day of gestation. On the 20th day, pregnant rats were euthanized, and the outcomes evaluated were weight gain; hematological profile; biochemical markers; oxidative stress markers; reproductive capacity; and embryo fetal development.ResultsThe characterization of mushrooms reveals them to be a valuable source of nutrients. However, Pb ingestion resulted in reduced weight gain and negative impacts on hematological and biochemical parameters. Fortunately, co administration of mushrooms helped to mitigate these negative effects and promote recovery. The mushroom also showed antioxidant activity, improving parameters of oxidative stress. In addition, Ab partially recovered the damage in fetal morphology and bone parameters.ConclusionOur findings indicated that the co administration of Ab improved the toxicity caused by Pb, and the mushroom could be used as a natural alternative as a protective/chelator agent.

“…G. lucidum triterpenoids reduce the cadmium content of the spleen, enhance the antioxidant enzyme activity, and reduce the expression of Malondialdehyde (MDA), which is a marker of oxidative stress in cadmium-induced broilers [ 111 ]. The antioxidative function of mushrooms such as A. bisporus is mainly due to phenolic compounds and polysaccharides [ 112 , 113 ]. A. bisporus stipes are reported to have more polysaccharides, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant capacity [ 14 ].…”

The restriction on the use of antibiotics in poultry has led to an increase in the use of natural products that could serve as alternatives to antibiotics. Mushrooms contain bioactive compounds that exhibit antifungal, antiparasitic, antibacterial, antioxidant, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and cytotoxic properties. Hence, they are being tested, revealing as performance-enhancing natural feed additives for livestock. This review focused on the role of different species of mushrooms commonly used in poultry on the performance, immunomodulatory actions, cholesterolemic properties, and meat quality of poultry birds. Different studies reviewed show that mushrooms could positively impact poultry production, improve growth performance, modulate immune response, exert tissue antioxidant activity, influence intestinal morphology, enhance gut microbiome, and improve lipid profile. The variations in their efficacy could be attributed to the variations in physicochemical properties of different species and dosage levels applied in the experiments. However, the use of mushrooms as a natural product supplement is in its infancy, and more basic, pilot and large-scale research is required to make it a viable approach for improving immune responses in the poultry industry.

“…Recovered button mushroom crude polysaccharides [A. bisporus polysaccharides (ABP)] contain 11.57% of α-glucans, 16.37% of β-glucans and some proteins (16.24%). Such active compounds obtained from mushroom waste exhibit extraordinary antioxidant capacity (Cebin et al 2018).…”

Natural additives obtained from vegetable and fruit wastes can potentially be used as coatings to enhance the shelf life of button mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus). The present study was therefore conducted to assess the effects of natural additive coatings A. bisporus polysaccharides (ABP) and Torreya grandis essential oils (TEO) on the post-harvest quality of button mushrooms up to 16 days under cold storage (4 °C). Different concentrations for coatings were used including control (no additives), 500, 1 000, 5 000 ppm or a combination of ABP and TEO. Changes in weight loss, firmness, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity and microbial biomass were investigated as well as the sensory evaluation was carried out. Results show a significant decrease in the weight loss rate (decreased up to 2.34%), down regulated the PPO activities (reduced up to 30.15%) and maintained tissue firmness in ABP/TEO treatments compared to the control, whereas TEO inhibited especially the growth of microorganisms. Natural additive coatings can better protect the inner mushroom colour and flavour compared to the control.
