Cytotoxicity of Coprinopsis atramentaria extract, organic acids and their synth...

Coprinopsis atramentaria is a wild edible mushroom whose methanolic extract revealed a marked antioxidant activity; p-hydroxybenzoic (HA), p-coumaric (CoA) and cinnamic (CA) acids were identified in the extract. In the present work, the cytotoxicity of C. atramentaria extract, previously identified organic acids and their synthesized derivatives (methylated compounds and protected glucuronides) was evaluated. A...

Gonoderma luicidium methanolic extract : chemical characterization in phenolic ...

A comparative study of chemical composition, antioxidant and antimicrobial prop...

A comparative study on chemical composition (nutritional value, primary and secondary metabolites), antioxidant properties (scavenging activity, reducing power and inhibition of lipid peroxidation), and antimicrobial activity (antibacterial and demelanizing properties) of two samples of Morchella esculenta (morel) from different countries (Portugal and Serbia) was performed. This species was chosen for being on...

Antimicrobial and demelanizing activity of Ganoderma lucidum extract, p-hydroxy...

Mushroom extracts or isolated compounds may be useful in the search of new potent antimicrobial agents. Herein, it is described the synthesis of protected (acetylated) glucuronide derivatives of p-hydroxybenzoic and cinnamic acids, two compounds identified in the medicinal mushroom Ganoderma lucidum. Their antimicrobial and demelanizing activities were evaluated and compared to the parent acids and G. lucidum e...

A comparative study of chemical composition of Morchella esculenta (L.) Pers. f...

Mushrooms contain a huge diversity of biomolecules with bioactive properties that should be explored. Morchella esculenta (L.) Pers. (morel) is one of the most highly prized edible mushrooms in the world. In the present work a comparative study on the chemical composition (nutritional value, primary and secondary metabolites) of the two samples from two countries, Portugal (SP) and Serbia (SS), was performed. C...

Antimicrobial activity of Ganoderma lucidum extract, p-hydroxybenzoic and cinna...

Ganoderma lucidumis one of the most famous traditional medicinal mushrooms, being used as functional food and in preventive medicines [1 ]. p-Hydroxybenzoic and cinnamic acids were previously identified, by our research group, in wild G. lucidum from Northeast of Portugal [2].Many studies suggest that phenolic compounds are rapidly metabolized in the human organism being glucuronidation the most prevalent meta...

Chemical characterization and antioxidant activity of phenolic, polysaccharidic...

Wild mushrooms contain a huge diversity of biomolecules with nutritional (1] and/or medicinal properties (2] .Their consumption continues to increase due to their functional benefits and presence of bioactive compounds that can be found in phenolic, polysaccharidic and lipidic fractions. Phenolic compounds can act as reducing agents, free radical-scavengers, singlet oxygen quenchers or metal ion chelators, and ...

Growth inhibitory activity of Coprinopsis atramentaria extract, phenolic acids...

Mushrooms represent an important source of compounds with antitumor and immunostimulating properties. Our attention is being focused on the capacity of phenolic acids from mushrooms to miHb1t the growth of different tumor cell lines. Croprinopsis atramentaria (Bull.: Fr.) Redhead, Vilgalys & Moncalvo, is a wild edible mushroom previously characterized by us for its nutritional composition, and also showed a not...

Chemical composition and bioactivity of wild samples of Morchella esculenta fro...

Mushrooms contain a huge diversity of biomolecules with nutritional1 and/or bioactive properties.2 , 3 Morchella esculenta (L.) Pers. (morel) is one of the most widely appreciated wild edible mushrooms. Herein, a comparative study on chemical composition (nutritional value, primary and secondary metabolites), antioxidant properties (scavenging activity, reducing power and inhibiPEsttion of lipid peroxidation), ...

Synthesis of acetylated glucuronide derivatives of p-hydroxybenzoic and cinnami...

Dietary phenolic compounds are widely considered to contribute to health benefits in humans. However, little is known about their bioactive forms in vivo and the mechanisms by which they may contribute toward disease prevention. Moreover, many studies on the biological effects of phenolic compounds have ignored the question of their achievable concentrations in the circulation after ingestion as well as their m...
