Antiradical and functional properties of subcritical water extracts from edible mushrooms and from commercial counterparts

This study deals with the antioxidant and functional potential of subcritical water extracts from edible mushrooms, in comparison to commercial products. Pleurotus citrinopileatus showed highest phenolic content properties. Similar results were determined Coriolus versicolor. The growth inhibition selected human carcinogenic cells was identified for P. extract obtained during heating up 160 °C. Rheological studies confirmed that glucan-based hydrogels prepared mushroom exhibited enhanced viscoelastic properties compared those formulated providing strongest gels eryngii, followed by Hericium erinaceus citrinopileatus. No syneresis proposed observed. could be interesting their application food sector.
