Abstract
Six mushrooms, Lentinus sajor-caju, Lentinus sp, Panellus sp. Polyporus
grammocephalus, Polyporus cf floccipes and Pseudopiptoporus sp (Pleurotaceae and Polyporaceae Family) were used to study antioxidant properties. Ethanolic extract of the mushrooms showed scavengging ability on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazil (DPPH) radical. In the thyociante method, there is no significant inhibition of lipid peroxidation activities between samples and positive controls. Phytochemical identification on ethanolic extract of Pseudopiptoporus sp showed that terpenes were the major component. This finding suggested that terpenes are resposible for antioxidant activity.
