Antioxidant potential and relation with chemical composition of wild edible mushrooms cap and stipe
| Resumo: | A comparative study of the organic acids and phenolics composition and of the total alkaloids content of entire wild edible mushrooms (Russula cyanoxantha, Amanita rubescens, Suillus granulatus and [Boletus edulis) and correspondent cap and stipe was performed. All species presented oxalic, citric, malic and fumaric acids. Phenolic compounds were present in all of the analyzed species, beingp-hydroxybenzoic acid identified in A. rubescens and S. granulatus species. It seems that this compound may have a propensity to accumulate in the cap of A. rubescens. B. edulis was the species that presented the highest total alkaloids amounts. All species revealed DPPH radical scavenging activity, being B. edulis the most effective one. |
