Abstract
|
|
|
|
Mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) have been used as traditional remedies as well as food sources. This study particularly used an extract of Pleurotus ostreatus among many other mushrooms for research to figure out the antioxidant activity and an effect of cytotoxin. The result of antioxidative effect was significantly increased at the high concentration. The otal contents of polyphenol and flavonoid were 30.2±0.7 and 20.4±0.6 respectively. Both reducing power and DPPH radical scavenging activities are highest at 5.0 mg/mL of concentration. According to the research about cytotoxin of normal cell, an extract of Pleurotus ostreatus showed no existence of toxicity based on 80.5% of viability. Meanwhile, Pleurotus ostreatus is not strongly effective on the growth of cancer cell, indicating anti-cancer effect has a quite high range of viability up to 70.0±5.3% in 5 mg/mL of concentration.
